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 two daughter attend school at Moffet and I couldn't be happier. All of the teachers and staff seem to care and are very loving on the kids. The small class size is very small with lots of individual attention. The school has a music teacher, which is rare nowadays. The best part I can say about Moffet is that it truly feels like a community. People care, parents mingle and know each other and since the school is so small it seems like the same kids each year. Nothing that comes to mind with a city school and the issues one would assume. No bully, no violence and best of all teachers, staff and a principal who cares.

This school is seriously one of the best public schools around. The principle Mr Johnson is fantastic. He’s so kind and really cares for the children. Every single teacher cares tremendously for their students and I’ve never had an issue that wasn’t immediately addressed. The office staff is great,...
