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 have been at Cowan since my 3rd grade year. The teachers are kind and helpful, and because of the size of the school, everyone knows each other. I have not had any bad experiences at Cowan. I would like to see some change in the discipline rules, as they are quite lax when it comes to that.

We are a very small school, but it allows for us to be a very tight-knitted community. Everyone knows everyone. One thing we could do better is expand our technology use and work on our dress-code.

They don't care about your children just the money they get for them. You are nothing but a number. Elementary was good but high school no.
