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.

We've had a great experience at Barron Park, grades weren't a problem and there are lots of different experiences, for example, The Maker's Studio, it's a great way to teach things in a creative way. My daughter really likes coding and earning badges there. Two great teacher experiences with Ms. Lorber and Nick Foote.
