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.

It's a great place to go to school. I went there as a child and now my kids attend school there. It's a small town school with great teachers, great staff.

Start Elementary gave me a safe place to learn necessary skills in not only mathematics but in general life. The teachers care. I LOVE BEING AN OWL. And although i have attended four high schools after graduating junior high, my heart desires to be back in orange and white.
