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've had some of the best years of my life at this school. Everyone is just so kind and the atmosphere makes you smile. Two things make this school unique: the fact that it's K-8 and its a small school and because its small everyone know everybody. I would definitely choose this school again because I have made so many friends, been given opportunity after opportunity, and have been changed. This school really has changed me, it has made me a better person and I'm pretty sure not all schools can do that to a person.

There are usually 4 options for the main part of the meal accompanied by a choice of fruits, salad, and vegetables (And rarely chips) with 3 different kinds of milk and occasional treats.

Fences surround campus making it very difficult to break entry. All visitors must sign in at office. And office staff is thoughtful about possible issues.

There was an incident April 28, where my grandson injured himself playing basketball. He had lacerations on the upper nose ( between the eyes ) and on the forehead. His teacher did not accompany him to the Main Office to inform them what happened. I just saw my grandson sitting infront of the office...
