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.

If you think that buying a home near this school will get your child into a great school you are wrong. Do not move to this neighborhood thinking your child will attend Valley Creek Elementary. 3rd grade is full and your child will be attending Malvern Elementary. Look them up and save your money. T...
