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 son attended OAS from 3rd grade through 8th grade. Overall, I liked his teachers. Some were of course better than others, but as a whole, I believe he got a very good education and I would recommend this school. They really do seem to care about each student and the technology seems up to date.
