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.

Due to me having to go to the nurse very often due to my Lupus, the nurse helped me with my pain and understood that I wasn't feeling well.

This school provides readiness for high school by taking tours of high schools around the area and giving out information, having a placement for kids advanced grade level and more. The teachers there care about what they teach and give students a great environment to learn. The staff are very kind...

Highly recommended. This school is relatively new but the staff and teachers make the school very competitive compared to other schools in the area.

I was impressed from my first visit to this school. My son attends this school since last year and so far I do recommend this school. It may not be the best, but it's one of the best in this area.
