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 am a prospective parent and I am disturbed by the comment made by the superintendent on this site. Why attack the parent(s) and not the comments themselves. Racism, and conflicts among diverse individuals could happen at any school, so what is being done to deal with diversity? Also it was stated multiple times that the school is second to none, why? I don't even see a link to a music or arts program on the website. Athletics is listed but there is no indication as to what sport is played. There is a lengthy bio of the head of custodial services who went to the school but nothing from a Math or science teacher. Whst STEM are you providing? Does the school teach foreign languages? If you are second to none elaborate to help prospective parents make a better decision as to whether or not they should purchase a home in this district. I am ranking this school based on the superintendent's response to parents' concerns and the schools website and there is much to be desired.

I'm not an expert on what constitutes a great school but do know that my 3 kids love going to school - every day. They are excited and don't want to miss a thing! I’m excited about above average test scores and the types of work they do and intelligent conversations they have with us. Things are alw...
