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 have had children attending Simmons Elementary for the past 12 years. All my children have loved attending Simmons. They each have favorite teachers and events, like the annual Spring Fair that have provided them each with very fond memories that will stay with them for their whole lives. Principal Kanter and the staff make all the children feel welcomed and cared for. Couldn't ask for a better elementary school for my children.
