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.

We have 2 children going to Salt Brook. Both of them began their Kindergarten year there and have continued their elementary education there. The teachers are amazing with the students. Both my children have loved every teacher they had at Salt Brook. They welcome lots of parent involvement in the classroom and with the students. And they show genuine care for the students. The teachers are knowledgeable and dedicated. We are extremely happy with the school system.

First and foremost, my honest assessment submitted a couple years ago seems to have disappeared. Guess when my oldest "advanced" to middle school they thought it was okay to purge.
