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.

I have been a volunteer mentor at Norwood Elementary since 2017. The school is a wonderful community of caring teachers and administrators who desire the very best for their students. The students are bright and enthusiastic and I have found them to be very considerate of each other.
