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 kids have made lots of friends here and have felt welcomed. The school feels safe and friendly. The parents are friendly and down to earth. The staff and teachers are professional and nice. Our kids have learned Spanish as well as an appreciation for people who speak Spanish. The kids take art, dance, and music classes from TK-8th grades. We will look back at this school very fondly when we leave in the future. The school has been through some ups and downs in the 10+ years that it has operated as a community-based charter school, but I think it's finding a happy resting place. I don't feel that the school's most recent test scores really reflect the strength of the kids. We had a rough year in terms of teacher turnover the last time we did testing (2019) and our scores dropped quite a bit from before. However, almost all of our teachers came back this year so we're on the right track. I would recommend it.

We have 2 kids at this school and really love the culture of the school and the bilingual education. There are some really great families and our boys have met some great friends. The TK teacher is possibly the best teacher in America. Loved by students and had our son starting his learning journey...
