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.

As an extended family member of several children there as well as friends who have pulled their children I would say it’s the worst experience. And I believe it is covered up as much as they can. The city and superintendent won’t deal with this in hopes no one will know.

My first-grader dreads the weekends!! This is an absolutely amazing school full of awesome educators. My daughter's education is so highly individualized and her needs are met exactly. Simply the best school in my book!
