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.

Leffingwell is a great school that we have been a part of for the past 10 years and still counting. My kids have always received the help they need. The teachers, principal and staff are all awesome. I’m happy to see more diversity at Leffingwell than previous years.
