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.

My experience at tapestry has been very eventful. I have met so many people who have encouraged me to join many activities and sports. The teachers are incredibly supportive and are willing to provide extra help before classes and after school hours. Being a tapestry student means to be a family but also to be a little competitive with each other. We love celebrating holidays and participating in the school spirit which allows everyone to be themselves and interact with each other even if you're not in the same grade.

What I love about tapestry is the fact that they are always there for their students no matter what. Being able to go to a small school gave me the opportunity to build connections with my teacher who took pride and helped me with me academics. The life at tapestry is truly amazing because your able to be yourself no matter what! Your voice is able to be heard whether you are a student or an adult in this school. They take everyone into consideration regardless of the circumstances. Being able to rely and depend on the staff there to help you through your journey is what I honestly love about tapestry the most. They care for their students like no other school and I'm glad that I picked this school. One thing that I would change is really nothing I'm happy in what I see in my school community!!!

The teachers became family, they care for us on so many different levels like mental health, safety, education and being student athletes. The school is small but as a community we are big on support and guidance . We always have school events, to bring us together.
