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.

This is a great school all the teachers are kind and really do care about the kids future. Every teacher and encounter we have had with them over the past 4 years have been exceptional and they always push the students to do their best. This was the first school out of three that finally realized that my oldest son had learning disabilities (dylexia and ADHD) and sought to get him tested and help. None of his previous schools or even doctor tried after expressing my concerns. They have fought hard to help him along he is now back in a regular classroom as of last year with A's and B's. I know he will continue to excel at this school. The information on this school should be updated as it is now 1700 students with an elementary and middle school combined.

Please , please put your absentee form at the page that says forms . Some of us don’t go on FB and every time I need that form, either I can’t find it or it takes me 3or4 days to find it. I’m on my 4th day now. All of us are not tech savvy. But other than that this school is the best !!

We are now in our 4th year at RGS and love it. We have four children there ranging from Kindergarten through seventh grade. We appreciate the quick response from the administration and the love and care the teachers put into their kids.

The new principal has big shoes to fill and she is failing. Due to multiple issues this year, we have elected to find another school for our son. Previous years have not been an issue(been at the school for 6 years) but this year my child and a few others were unfairly punished and singled out consi...
