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.

My son started at Dawes in the 4th grade as a struggling reader and his teachers were very observant and proactive in getting him caught up. They provided extra help and were very informative along the way. I am glad we made the change to Dawes because I don't feel like we would have had help like this if we stayed where we were.

The teachers are top notch and have high expectations for their students. Students leaving Dawes transition well into middle school. This school received the 2016 Lighthouse Blue Ribbon School of Excellence.

My son was fully prepared for Causey after attending Dawes. The teachers are smart and caring. The school has an after school tutoring program where teachers stay and help with homework and test preparation.
