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.

Be aware the principal Cherry Robertson is a complete bully. She will not treat each student the same and she discriminate against children with disabilities. The superintendent office is aware of it.

I have a child who has gone through this school and one who is beginning, I love it, recommend this school to any parent, who really wants their children to learn.
