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.

I learned the principal doesn’t care how every kid feels. And that ‘leadership’ message has passed down through the school. I don’t think I am overreacting anything! Kids should feel included, especially when that’s the place they spend the majority of their day!

Very unprofessional staff members. The bad behaved students ruin the experience for all the other children.None of the teachers go the extra mile for the kid who might be struggling.
