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 went here in 2013-2019 and was in the err program in late 2014 to may 31st 2019, borderline verbally abusive paras/aides, kind of mean teachers. I was picked on by other kids frequently but no one did anything or noticed besides 1 teacher, Mrs Miller and I didn't even have her. The ERR program is horrible, they pull them out of class just to give kids 1st grade work which stunts them. I will say I liked the principal Mrs hart, Ms julie, Gwenda Venecia, Mrs Nishikiwa, Mr. Black, Mrs. Grill and Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Juhasz. They were/are awesome teachers though alot of them moved schools, oh ya Mrs mansfield was awesome aswell.

Teachers get to know their students and take a pe...

This school is awful. For supposedly having great scores, the experience we've had is well below par. Our kids (my stepkids) both need extra help and yet, don't seem to get it. We have expressed our concerns with the teachers but were told that the scores were "normal". On top of that, bullying has...

Excellent! As an educator, it has been my joy to teach at this school. I am supported by the principal to be the best I can be for kids. I’ve taught many years and my years at Chief Jo have been very rewarding. We are a National Blue Ribbon school for the academic growth we have made over time. I co...
