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.

We have a student who is in their 3rd year at Couch and another who has started year 1. We have had a very positive experience to date - The academic instruction has been excellent and my child is learning and excelling academically. The fine arts program has added to her education and given her a creative outlet. Our second child will also participate in a fine arts opportunity. I have found the teachers to be readily available and very involved in the kids' studies - have had very positive interactions with many of the teachers to help my child excel. I have also found the administration engaged with students and working to deliver a safe and caring environment while expecting and valuing positive student behavior during the school day. We are very thankful to be CMS Rams.
