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.

Our kids have thrived at this school. Despite the low rating on this page (which seems off to me) they have done very well on their standardized tests. Their teachers have been wonderful - they've learned a lot and have good relationships with them. I really like the curriculum - not just "teaching to the test" but educating the whole child.

My son just finished 5th grade last year and my daughter is in 1st. This school has been wonderful for both of them. My son is now in the ingenuity program for middle school and he's been prepared really well. My daughter loves school and learning. They've had great experiences at Creative City.
