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.

Even though I have been out of Spring Lake Heights Elementary for four years now, I knew the teachers pretty well while I was there. The teachers were awesome, they were so nice and good at their jobs. They genuinely cared about how you were doing in school, and out as well as just what was going on in your life. For example, they knew what sports you were apart of and what you did outside of school. When I was there we didn't use computers that much because there were not enough for the whole school, but we did have smart boards in almost every room by the time I left

The school provides almost no challenge to the students. Our kids get virtually no homework while others in other districts in the same grades get significantly more. It is not a surprise that later on in school the students are not prepared or up to speed.
