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.

The experience thus far, from pre-school to second grade have been great. The teachers were one better than the other and especially the second-grade teacher was magnificent. The Principal just started this year and already we have seen a lot of improvement around the school. Parents are very involved. The school feels like a little gem.
