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.

We had to ration paper one year because we couldn't spend anymore money. For my 6th Grade Graduation Party, the "red carpet" was made of tissue paper from Home Depot. Also, it was blue. The main attraction was rock painting, and when they ran out of rocks, the lady running it told me to "Go outside and get some more". Really bad at managing expenses, spend a lot of money on SUPER fancy benches, but ran out of paper again at the end of the year.

In comparison to schools nearby, the school is way below average. If you are looking to move into this area with kids elementary age, I would consider looking elsewhere.

Excellent experience. My 2 children went to Forest Edge from Kindergarten through 6th grade. They went into Junior High School and High School well prepared.

My daughter is going into second grade and has loved being in school. She adored her kindergarten teacher and first grade teacher. It has a strong sense of community. The leadership is getting into their groove after three years.
