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 was able to grow with the school from kindergarten to 8th grade so I witnessed may changes. Recently known as one of the worst schools in the district it later became one of the top rated. They take their STEM classes very important, and I am glad I got to go to such an awesome k-8.
