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 children have both thrived thus far. We were skeptical of the district but we are pleasantly surprised! The school goes above and beyond with learning, extra help, and supporting families that need it. Easy to communicate with the teachers and district staff when needed. We have been very happy.
