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.

Last I checked, HP Elementary had a wide array of extracurriculars and a variety of facilities that introduced a lot of subjects for students to explore. Most of the teachers there are understanding and want their students to succeed in their studies. It's pretty safe there. The administration could do better though with communicating with the student body and with some of their policies.

My school has one of the best academic programs in the area, it's also very well maintained and always looks nice. One thing I would change is the way administration deals with punishments and discipline, I've had very negative expiriences where they did not handle situations properly.
