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 experience is with Pre-K & Kindergarten, as we've not had any experience with the upper side. My children learned a lot here, & we love their teachers dearly. These ladies really do care about our babies. PTO parents are great as well. I recommend HWM for Pre-K through first grade.

I love this school and so does my child. Aside from the great education my child is receiving, the teachers and faculty are caring and make my child feel loved like one of their own.
