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 academic programming is average. Teachers are hit-or-miss. My second grader has a wonderful teacher this year but had an ineffective teacher last year who did not take the time to learn who he really was. My fifth grader had an amazing teacher last year and has had a very disappointing experience this year. The administration is very focused on punishing students when students they deem to be credible report the bad behavior of their peers. It has created a culture of students leveraging their credibility to bully each other.

I am a parent of a 4th grade student at Kingston Hill Academy. We all love everything about this school and have nothing but good things to say about it. The teachers are the best. The quality of education is exceptional. I would and have recommended this school to friends and family. If KHA expanded to higher grade levels, my son would be there until he reached the highest level possible.

School is not supportive of students with any 504 or IEP (special needs/ed) plans. School was under a federal civil rights settlement that they don't disclose. Although it's a public school, the board is basically self-appointed and thus is an insider club (one of the board member is a spouse of a t...

After attending KHA, children are far beyond the public schools in the area and some of the private schools. There is no way I would consider sending my children anywhere else. The only drawback is that it's kind of in the middle of nowhere, but we bus with another Charter school and that accommodat...
