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.

My son progress is zero. They complain about anything like going to the bathroom or things that kids do normally. But when I complain about a bullying they never trust me or my son

The staff of Smith Elementary School was very supportive to my grandson and our family when my daughter died in October 2013. I will remain eternally grateful for the compassion shown to us. Academically, my grandson has done extremely well thanks to the efforts and encouragement from his teachers,...

Wonderful, supportive staff :) my two boys require a LOT of attention. I feel like the great schools rating is biased
