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.

Since I have left the principal has changed a few times. While I was there the teachers were what you expect a couple that genuinely wanted to be there and more that hated their life and took it out on the children. My hatred of school fully flourished in 3rd grade when all the teacher wouldn't assist me with my classwork and continually made me feel stupid.
