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.

I had heard some negative things in the past but have seen nothing to back them up. The new(ish) principal, Ms. Dendurent, is really wonderful. She is hands-on, available and really supports her staff. I am so happy to be able to send my son to this school. He is thriving.
