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 feel like this school is doing everything it can to keep students safe during the pandemic. It is difficult to know exactly what to do, but I think they are doing the best they can, and am grateful to feel safe that the virus won't spread there.

Lindsey is a horrible example for the kids. I guess if you can't run a High School they transfer you to elementary school. Douglas County must be desperate to keep Lindsey as a principal.

Don't be white here. My son for 3 years was bullied to the point he was stabbed because he was white. Video seems to disappear, along with staff being told not to write reports so there's no paper trail. State was called but they protect their own. You want your children safe don't send them here.
