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.

Great school. When Covid hit the school was quick to ensure all students had a laptop to do remote learning. Had a plan to ensure kids were doing something that resembled school work. Now for the new school year they have led the way with health safety. Only one staff infected and zero students as of last week. Teachers are understanding and keep the lines of communications open for the parents.
