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 enjoyed my time there and had some of the greatest teacher a child could ever ask for growing up. I remember the teacher and student games. We could never beat the teachers till after I left and they finally beat the teachers. Also the principal was pretty good. I felt challenged by my teachers and in the classroom. I never felt I wasn't good enough to make it to high school and then college afterwards.
