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.

This is a neighborhood school, and Thomas Jefferson sits in one of the more diverse neighborhoods in Broome County. The teachers are among the best in the area and balance demands on a diverse student body. The administration at Thomas Jefferson is attentive to student needs and responsive to parents' concerns. We have been delighted by the way that students and administrators have gone to bat for our kids.

The kids are taught traditional subjects and the importance of respect, kindness, honesty and trying your best. Special events like the fall festival, fall and spring concerts, art show, and movie...

Most of the teachers work hard to teach our children. Some of the teachers let the bully's, bully and blame the victims. Not a fan of the new princial. She SEEMS under qualified and overwhelmed. Also very unprofessional and self righteous.
