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 daughter just graduated from Dodson and she had nothing but great things to say about the staff and students there. My son will be entering 2nd grade in September and he absolutely loves it as well. It is no longer a failing school and this is all due to the wonderful staff and principal.
