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 absolutely love this school. Mr. Knox was my daughters teacher. And when he wasn’t her teacher any more he still made sure she was always okay and checked on her. I knew I had someone at the school who really cared about my kids.

Mrs. Lang, my son's second grade teacher is an Educator Extraordinaire! She is energetic, creative and informative! All the teachers my children have had each year have been quality, but Mrs. Lang takes the prize! Love her!

My only gripe is the workload... some weeks my son's homework packet is 30+ pages long, and he is in first grade. However I must admit, it has to be helping in some way; he's in first grade (honors class) and is currently learning multiplication and fractions.
