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.

Absolutely amazing school. My son has attended since kindergarten and we had a wonderful experience with the teachers and staff. The principal, Mr. Martinez, is a godsend. He goes above and beyond expectations in how engaging he is with students and families. I feel my son got an excellent education here and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.
