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 kids came from an out of state school where they werent fans of going to school. Since we moved here they love going and have thrived at Chittum. Every year the teachers are wonderful and give a little more time for the kids that need it. The teaching assistants are also always amazing.

School is less than 2 years old. State of the art facility. Great school staff and very communicative with families. Very secure facility. My kids love all of their teachers here.

Maybe Chittum should be more focused on having grades and actual curriculums for the students rather than having spirit weeks every single week of the school year… I’m truly disappointed that with all the money that went into the new building and these kids don’t learn anything.
