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.

2 years at this school were enough to take my child out of the San Diego school district. Our first year a parent complained to me that the bullying there was a problem, I thought she may have been exaggerating. I owe her and my child an apology.

terrible. they focus more on the students that have parents in the military. other are just not the priority. I had a friend that had her daughter at Chesterton and warned me not to enroll my kids there... I thought why would they be like that.... now I understand why.

Our experience has been more than expected thus far. They have helped my kid more than I can express and continue to push and help my kid excel.

I don't think there is a number high enough to rate my experience I've had thus far at this school! We absolutley love this school! We as a family are going to be so very sad when it comes time to transfer with the military, and leave this school. We will forever love and be thankful for Chesterton...
