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 was bullied and told to go back to the school I came from when I reported it to then, assistant principal and now principal, Rebecca Nicolas

My child had mild success because has a strong culture at home and a decent teacher, but listening to that awkward principal speak to parents was a drag. Then to find out all the inappropriate things happening at Fern Creek really blew my mind. I am not sure the culture of JCPS is ready to change.

Great at first but more recently it has been a poor experience.
