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've been to three other elementary schools in the metro area and Livsey is, by far, my favorite. It is a very close-knit, family oriented school where everyone knows each other. The academics are challenging and the teachers are nurturing yet firm. All of my children have excelled at Livsey!
