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.

The school was great! My son had GREAT teachers and a good environment to learn. The school had great events and a top notch principal. My son is now in CVMS and the principal is not assistant superintendent so this is kind of irrelevant but I'm positive the school is still amazing.

We had a very bad experience with pakanasink, my son went to kindergarten last year and he had a terrible teacher, specially the assistant was uneducated. She mistreated the kids, had no patience, and my son now hates school. They both need to retire after teaching for 29 years.
