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 school is not what it used to be. Our first child attended this school around 5-10 years ago and they had a great learning experience. Our first child was well versed in Spanish and received a great overall education. They were well prepared for middle school and high school. Our second child now attends this school and nothing could be further from the truth. Our second child receives A's and great scores from the teacher but does very poorly on the standardized tests that indicate their actual performance. I don't think they actually know Spanish. Our second child is performing at 1-3 grade levels below their actual grade in mathematical concepts and is lacking basic skills that they need to succeed. We have asked for help from teachers and advice on where to look for practice worksheets or help and get absolutely nothing. We have also requested help to evaluate for potential learning disabilities and received very little help here as well.

I would you rate your experience at this school very highly, but I get bullied a lot and since the person that would do it, has the whole class as their friend, they are on the bully's side. Nobody would believe me.
