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 cannot put into words how important and incrimental Jefferson R7 was to my childhood and beyond. I hope one day to give back to my old community.

My children's experience at Danby was excellent. Through those tough middle school years, they helped them to become more independent, challenged them academically and instilled a sense of pride in their school.

Beware, school admin lies. They are always right. You as a parent are stupid, you know nothing about your child.

This school is terrible for special needs children. They claim to treat all of the children the same, but they do not. They don't like having to "deal" with the "issues" that come with special needs kids.
