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 many options of classes is great and I love adventure days and mini units during the year to give a bit of a break and have some fun.

There aren't currently many clubs but the ones we do have are fun and interesting. Mosaic Club talks about social justice issues and the adventure club plans fun hikes and trips around the area. Plus adventure days throughout the year are always exciting!
