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.

I have no kids, yet I receive phone calls and voicemail messages that "my son" is ready to be picked up from school. I've explained that I have no kids and to remove my number, but they continue to call me to pickup "my son." Don't be surprised if you child goes missing attending this school.
