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.

Everything about this school is amazing from teachers to staff to the PTA. We went to another GISD school before attending so we know the difference. Each and every need to attended to including 504/dyslexia needs as well as specific allergies. All of the teachers and staff pride themselves on knowing every kid by name and getting to know them. They care deeply. The PTA is very involved and provides fun community events and fundraising for the school. My kids absolutely love this school. You do have to test into the academy but we highly encourage it. It's 20ish minutes from our house but the bus system is well planned. Our bus driver is caring as well. I also love that my kids are exposed to numerous cultures at the school. The school even offers Orchestra to 4/5 grade students. Choir is offered to 3-5 grades.

Teachers and staff look for ways to grow each student not jus...
