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 started his school experience as a kindergarten student during the pandemic. I liked how they ran virtual school and the transition from virtual to in-person was smooth. My son is currently in 2nd grade and performing above grade level and I accredit this to his teachers and the programs that they are using with the students. We have had a great experience so far.

Hereford is a fantastic school. Our child has been supported, challenged and well loved by all teachers and staff. The staff is very engaged with all of the kids. They have created a wonderful culture with involved parents and families!
