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.

The staff is great here, they really do treat you like they're your family. There are a few things that need work though (EX. Gym classes, equipment for teachers and students, etc.). All around though the school is good, the students maybe not so much.

If these kids gets their jackets taken in the midst of the weather is Ridgewood going...
