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.

The school is terrible. It’s unorganized. I’m not impressed with the principal and there are unprofessional lazy teachers that do not care to teach the kids.

I’m very disappointed with the principal and teachers in this school. The school is disorganized. Calling to say my child is missing but was afterwards found he was in class is crazy.

The school needs an overhaul. Its grades are going down drastically statewide where either teachers require additional training or getting these teachers to be accountable for failing students. Screaming and discouraging children are not to be accepted. Stop making excuses and take ownership.
