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.

My son started kindergarten only a few months ago and is already reading books to us without any assistance. He couldn’t have a more wonderful teacher. Mrs Murphy is everything anyone could want in an educator. So happy he’s at this school.
