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.

The vice principal I had was very contradictive. Not to mention rude and vindictive. Also, the principal did not know how to handle serious situations.

It's extremely diverse at Melvin H. Keeps and the East Windsor area in general, so students gain a lot of exposure by being here. There are many clubs available to students, and new ones are being added every year. Sports are also fairly good, but get better in the high school where swimming and ice hockey is added. The teachers at Kreps are amazing and teach their subject really well. Overall, it's a great school.
