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.

My son attends this school and it is by far the best choice we could've made. Even though we were on the wait list for years, we are happy we waited. Myself, husband, and both children have attended Clay public schools and this one far supercedes all of them. Very grateful to have this school that provides such a richer and deeper curriculum with wonderful teachers to our children here in our community.

So many of my friends have left the school because of how bad the bullying is and the teachers don’t say a...

This may initially look like a nice option to the crowded larger public schools, but beware. You find a cramped campus in which kids rarely see sunlight and some get essentially no exercise all day. The school hides behind a Board which parents do not elect and cannot freely speak with, and they wil...
