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.

It hAs been a long time ago. I had two children who attended RVS. One graduated from Boonton and the other from MLHS. Both went on to Vermont colleges. One at UVM and the other from Middlebury. My son lives in Nicaragua and Norway. The other my daughter lives in Northern NJ. They were both there from K-8. I give the school and it's staff an A+. The low rating in food is because they did not have food service. A wonderful area.

Many teachers are wonderful and ca...
