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 to say at first I was iffy about my child attending Leestown Middle School because I had heard rumors that it wasn't a parent friendly school and there were staff members who were not friendly with students as well. I have to say I am happy that the few times I have been in the school I have felt welcomed and kiddo just loves being a student there. I hope to volunteer on some level at the school when my work schedule allows me to.
