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 love my kids school. The teachers are spectacular. The project based learning is amazing. My 8th grader is fluent in 3 languages!! INSANE! The other kids, the families, the staff, all of these things are great. I can't say enough what a great school this is.
