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 were looking for a good elementary school to go too... you've just found the perfect one. I was once a student at MeadowBrook, and that school is a whole life changing experience I will never forget. This school has taught me so many things. The teachers are the best, the food is good, the staff are supper nice, and the principle is amazing. That school has made me who I am today, and has made me a lot smarter. If your considering another school, don't. I promise you, If you stick with Meadowbrook, you would have made the best choice for your children.
