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 traffic for parent drop-off is way too long and hectic. Even if you get in the car line to the school ten minutes before school starts you will end up being in class 20 minutes late because of the traffic and line they make you wait in for a tardy pass.
