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.

Founders has a small classroom environment where you get one on one attention. I love their curriculum, student body, and teachers. The only issue is their increasingly stricter dress code and attempts to lessen individuality.

My experiences at Founders were vastly different from my public school education and more valuable. My teachers challenged me to practice virtue as a student, contemplate the meaning of justice, write mathematical proofs, and seriously think about the meaning of a good life. Because we are a Charter school, we are short of money and could be more successful if we were paid as much as public schools.

It provides students with a great education. The teachers are very knowledgeable, and they are interested in the students and their abilities to grasp information. The school is fairly new, so there are still a couple glitches in terms of the school's communication. Overall, Founders has provided me with a good education that I find beneficial to my college readiness.
We have 2 elementary-aged children attending Founders. Our children, while not gifted, are hard-working and very eager to learn. We've found that the school is rigorous and has high expectations of students, but that is the reason we chose to apply. Compared to the many other schools in the area tha...

While I firmly believe in the importance of...

The school is very much focused on liberal arts education and creating a rigorous academic environment. There is an adjustment period for new kids, but the school administration ha...
