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.

Rosa Parks has been a great experience I have learned so many things that have changed the way I viewed life. I have learned to be a better person, accept myself as I am, and how to learn from my mistakes.

I liked how all of the teachers care about you and whenever you need help they are there. due to the school being small , we are all like a family.
