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.

Although where the school is and the types of kids that enroll into this K-8 the teachers are always there and has become the support system of the school. With all of the problems that they are faced: being a focus school, and unstable administration, these teachers have been there the whole time for the students. Although a major chunk of the original staff has left; the new staff that consists of teachers and student advisors have done an exceptional job of adjusting.
