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 loved Whitmore. All of the staff are there to help with any problems you may have. The curriculum is very straightforward and easy to understand. Teachers respond quickly and give great feedback. The learning approach has helped me to actually learn instead of trying to test well.
