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.

This is an excellent school. They by far have a great staff and teachers who care and want their students to learn and develop their skill sets. During my time at Clinton Elementary, I learned so much not only about my academics but about life. They had programs available to us such as the D.A.R.E program and had a plethora of activities that we could engage in.

The responsiveness of teachers, pr...

When we first moved to Maplewood from Brooklyn in 2013, it felt like the realtors mostly pushed the status of elementary schools like Tuscan and Marshall. When we realized we were zoned from Clinton, it felt like we received polite words from parents in other zones who said (a bit condescendingly),...
