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.

We had a very bad experience at LAMB. Our child was bullied and the administration didn't have a clue on how to follow Federal guidelines. The teachers are GREAT but the administration is lacking.

Aweful, depressing, disheartening and no trust in Public Charter Schools because of the lack of accountability.

I love LAMB and feel incredibly lucky that my children are learning in such a nurturing and stimulating environment. Their focus on social-emotional development is unparalleled.

This school hits all the right notes, but everything depends on who is the teacher in your child's "community". There seems to be some inconsistency in teacher quality and adhering to Montessori methodology. Growing pains? Overall though it is a good place for my kid.
