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.

I really think this school needs to change a new principle who is really knowledgeable in promoting math, and science learning. I really disagreed with parent and teacher dancing night. I do not see any benefit from this type of activity that was supported by current principle.
