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.

Melrose Elementary has truly made a change within the last couple of years. There seems to be more involvement from the new principal. There seems to be an understood and unified culture. Melrose was not all that great, but this new principal seems to be getting it right!
