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.

With the help of a grant, every student now has their own iPad, so technology has emerged in every classroom. It has been wonderful for students as well as staff. The kids love them and have been very responsible with them! Our students will be ready for the changing world! So thankful to work here!
