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 personally think that this is a rather good school. I attended this school from 2009 to 2014 while I attended first through fifth grade and was very happy while I was there. Although this is one of the lower rated schools in Kirby School District 140, that does not mean that it is a bad school. Fernway is a school that consistently turns out good kids who are ready for the middle school level of their education. I also think that the teachers at this school were outstanding while I was there. I fact, my first, fourth, and fifth grade teachers are still at the school.
