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 school is nice but the teachers need to be more about supporting and engaging students in the learning process versus nitpicking at normal childish behaviors that just need to redirected into retaining what is taught if they are teaching anything. I am surprised the rating is so low especially...
