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 principal makes a lot of condescending comments in regards to students. Has made me as a parent feel uncomfortable on multiple occasions with her choice of words. To put it simply — Implicit bias.

My son graduated from this school and as a parent I can not be more happier to see my son learned so much from this school. Great teachers, my daughter is going there now and I feel safe her being there . Feels like my Kid’s second home .
