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.

Words can't describe out amazing I think this school is. I have taught here for over seven years and have no plans of leaving. The environment is so positive! We think the world of our students! I see so many teachers and staff go above and beyond each day to help all the students succeed!

Excellent teachers and a very involved director. The history emphasis includes integration with other subjects making it very conducive to great retention of learning.

Both of my children are at Jefferson and have had a great experience. Aside from a high turnover rate from young female teachers (getting married or having children) the overall operations seem decent. I feel my kids are about a grade level higher in math and science that nearby public schools. Some teachers have assigned an abnormal level of homework (last year my daughter had almost 2.5hrs of homework every night) but overall I feel like the school does a great job.

Please be so careful considering this school. The administration is toxic and openly verbally abuses her teachers and staff, which could explain why twelve of them left last year. Teachers are afraid to come forward with their concerns for fear of repercussions from administration. The school board...

My daughter has gone to this school for 4 years as a special education student. The administration does not have these children’s best interests in mind when making decisions, they are under staffed and the staff they do have (after firing the most amazing SpEd teacher that made that entire departme...
