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 wouldn't even give them a 1 star more like a no star. The new prinicple lies about her actions, not approachable, rude, doesn't seem to be happy always has a straight mean look on her face. Needs to take communication classes as well as child psychology classes she doesn't know how to handle troubled behavior children. My 5th grade child didnt gave a permanent teacher for the whole year and had a hard time in middle school, thank goodness I put them in tutoring classes. APS schools are the worst.

This has happened more times than it should have.They hav...
