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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I like how our small school is a central location between three communities. We have a large school district that includes parts of almost 5 counties. Being not in the middle of a town also gives me a sense of safety. I love the small class sizes and being able to meet with teacher to get extra help if needed.
