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.

Cranbury is a great school with great teachers. You get a great sense of community at this school. I'm not sure who the parent mom was up above, but the PTO is extremely open and welcoming. I can guarantee that they never came to a PTO meeting and voiced a concern, because that would have been handled toot sweet. I hope that should any parent ever have an issue that they bring it to the attention of the PTO and the administration. This school wouldn't function as well as it does without the help of the parents. The only negative about Cranbury is that the city and BOE have neglected the facility, which needs to be updated to get it up to par with today's standards and codes.
