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.

My son has been going to Greensboro academy sense kindergarten. The teachers there are amazing and also looking out for the best interests of the kids. The administration is the best around! It's a very clean and welcoming school! We moved last year 45 min away and I still drive every day to take my son there. I wouldn't have him go anywhere else!
