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 to this school and my kids are the second generation to attend. They each were fortunate to have my then fourth grade teacher as their first grade teacher. The principal and vice principal are absolutely fantastic and have learned over the years what works best for my oldest as he has behavioral problems. The school is kept clean and all the staff are very nice.

My son has been here since Kindergarten, he is going into the 3rd grade, I could not possibly have more nice things to say about this school. The staff is top tier. My son struggled with his reading his second grade teacher saw this and got him the help he needed.

Furthermore I thankfully got my son away from there and asked for the transfer packet. Secretary had...
