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.

WORST School I've ever encountered in my life. There was absolutely no Student Activities no Sports no music no plays no parent-teacher meeting they just lock the kids up in the school and keep the parents totally separate from what's going on inside the school. You have no idea what student is Reading Writing or learning in the school kids can just walk home with no supervision or care. Not to mention the constant fights and police activity going on right next door at the middle school so now you have to worry about the environment your child is about to go into from elementary school. Avoid the school at all costs
