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.

Pierce is a lovely place to be other then the food they serve. It's very easy to find friends and the teachers are kind and helpful. The school is well put together with safety guidelines and more. Lastly the facilities are great because to the outdoor field and 3-d printers. Overall I love it here and recommended it for newcomers in Milton.
