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.

Everything about this school is amazing. If you get the opportunity to enroll your children, don't pass it up. I regret ever moving away from this school district. Doing everything I can to go back! Just be warned, no other school will ever amount to it lol

This school is fantastic. The teachers work very hard to met children at their level and challenge them to achieve more. I can not say enough good about this school.

This is a dream school! My children are cared for and challenged in a supportive environment. They integrate technology and utilize a process to determine which children need remedial time and which need enrichment in all areas.

We recently moved into the district from a very different area, and from a top-quality school. I was somewhat concerned about the school when we arrived, but we have been very impressed with the quality of education here. Most of the teachers are wonderful, creative and progressive in their approach...
