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.

My son goes here and loves it. The staff is amazing and they helped him get up to speed with the curriculum. If you get the pleasure of having Miss. Scott she is very caring, great communicator and passionate about children's education. I can't say enough great stuff about this school.
