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.

Lowcountry Montessori School is a free spirited school that gives you the freedom you need to feel like you can learn. This school is also a school that lets you learn at your own pace. The cons of this school would have to be that the school trips are NEVER planned well enough in advance. Also things always change at last minute and money that we gave them seems to disappear.
