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 attended elementary school here. The parents were very involved and welcomed in the classroom. The teachers were warm and caring towards me. I felt a sense of family here even though it is a large school. There were many enrichment activities and events sponsored by the PTA.
