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.

Great school they did the right thing and were very attentive to the students needs. I can’t actually believe some of these other reviews as they look like sour grapes from bad actors.

Such great teachers. A really strong curriculum and the values they instill in students set them up for future success. Have had a really positive experience for our child and is set up well for high school.
