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.

Avoid this school if you can. Only one women works at the front desk, you have to go through her to figure out anything. (Which is a nightmare on its own.)

Zero communication. Front desk women, assuming it’s just the one, is awful. School runs of out lunch frequently. There is no type of newsletter here. Follow their Facebook page and you might have a slight idea of what’s going on. Office staff could care less. Avoid moving into this district.
