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 nurses do what they have to do. They take temperature, and give you medicine if okay by parent/guardian. They are very comfortin. If you are seriously hurt, they'll give you a brief overview of what may be a definite problem then ask you to see the doctor. The security I'd say is excellent for the most part. There have been false accusations here and there, but they do their jobs. they're quite friendly too.

A lot of teachers are very inspiring and motivational. Even if they did do the curriculum wrong I personally wouldn't have a problem with that because the way they teach a lesson is what matters to me the most. The workload was suprisingly not heavy at all. Looking back on it I really don't know how I did it, we barely got any homework and I still managed to understand the lessons very vividly.

My child is excited to go to school has better grades and they have had in previous schools for the same timeframe. Finding friends is been a little bit difficult but the teachers have been very supportive. I l...

It is awful to be in this school. Every day I wake up, the last thing I want to do is come here. There are much better middle schools I've been at like Bernardo Heights middle school. The homework here is pretty good, we're not assigned much and the majority of work is in class. Some teachers are ac...
