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.

The teachers and support staff are very dedicated to the students. The staff have a can do attitude and work well together. The principal is constantly in motion, visiting class rooms and just chatting with the students. The parents are very involved (as much as they can be during the Covid era) and supportive of the staff.

Not worth commenting or attending. Go elsewhere for your kids sake. Students are rapidly leaving due to poor leadership.
