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.

This has been the worst year in school that my son has ever had. There are WAY too many children in this school and the staff is not equip to deal with them. My son has had a tough transition and these teachers have done nothing to help him. There is no support or guidance. It is a joke. There is ABSOLUTELY NO communication between you and the teachers. Do not even think of emailing them because they will only ignore your email and not get back to you. They bring these kids together from all over Downingtown for 1 year then separate them and I feel like it's very hard for them to form any kind of friendships. I am very disappointed on how this year has played out for my son and I wish I would have sent him to another school for 6th grade.
