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 school itself is an amazing school. However, some of the staff aren't. Some of them pick up phone calls for 10 minutes. I would rate the teaching 4/5 stars. The only thing I would not recommend is buying lunch there. For example, a few of my friends have found mold in the food there. But other than that I think the safety was amazing and most of the staff were friendly. One last thing I would like to add. The learning in some grades is not good enough. By that, I mean that some of the teachers do not take their time to teach you and give out tests on the 2nd day. But overall I rate the school 4/5 stars.

I love TES. I am a 6th grader who went to TES k-5th grade. This school is amazing, it's as close to a private school as there ever will be. The students are great and the teachers are amazing. It has the best traditions that never change, like Spring Fling, that even former students now in high scho...
