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.

In this school we feel like in a family. Kids learn while having so much fun! This is amazing

I believe that the school itself is still good, and that the kids may not yet be affected, but I have noticed a sharp decline in this school since this latest principal, Mark Green, has taken over. Mark is a strict believer in modern education: and unfortunately I mean that in the not-so-great way:...

We are very happy with this school and highly recommend it. Some things could be better organized and there is room for improvement, but overall it is a highly engaging environment. This is partly due to the small size (everybody knows each other), but the staff is also just really outstanding.
