GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

MLK is a great school. Never had any problems with my two sons being there for the past five years. Teachers are very efficient and effective. They keep me informed about my kids' behavior and the school in general keep parents informed and up to date with happenings.
