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.

Excellent community involvement and it's a great school for K-1. It gets spotty after that. The district has had a revolving door of superintendents for a number of years. Major problems with a few staff and the school board. The test scores reflect such.

My two daughters and soon my 5 year old attend this school. It is the same school their grandmother attended. The school is in small-town America, which is a great place to grow-up. The school truly cares about the kids and wants them to achieve excellence!
