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.

SCS is the school that I have attended since Kindergarten, and now I am in 7th grade. This school has gone through many changes, including a multi-million dollar grant to renovate the roofing, middle school wing, and many other things. My experience at this school has been good over the years, but they really did us in by switching the middle school to 5-8 and jumbling everything up. I'd say that it's a caring community, and that I would recommend this school, but it could be more diverse!!

SCS has been an amazing school for our two kids. When needed, we've been able to access special services and supports for our kids. Our teachers have all been top notch.

There are several good teachers, but my (and many of my classmates) experiences with the middle-level guidance counselor have been negative. The students are...

I prefer homeschooling my child and working a full time job instead of having my child partake in schooling at SCS. I am more than happy to tire myself out to provide a proper education for my child where they feel safe and heard. They do not do a great job at enforcing safety nets for students that...
