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.

This is my 2nd year and last year my kids will be at this school. There are never any permanent teachers and never any homework. I'm almost positive when we leave this school my kids will be very behind because of this schools inability to teach the kids and push them to learn more. I can tell that...
