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.

Teachers are respectful and knows how to communicate with us parents and handle little kids well. School bus is also wonderful! They make sure of their safety from inside to the point that they drive them home safely. No complaints so far.

Only thing is the bus company, they will drop your kid off anywhere. Which is totally unsafe. But the school itself is awesome.
