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.

So far my daughter has had amazing teachers. And was able to join an after school program this year. It would be great if the school offered a before care program. Single mothers need as much help as possible.

Sad the way they staff schools in low poverty areas. You would never find schools with scores this low in areas where there are majority white children. AMERICA SUCKS!!! This school deserves zero stars. They simply don't care!
