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.

My son will be going to K this Sept. I've had the opportunity 2 meet with all 4 K teachers, principal and other main staff. This is 1 of the few pl in this city where you will be treated w respect they really make u feel welcome, never ran into so many friendly ppl together (in NYS). Great, varied, curriculum starting from K. Use of a system where the kid running behind on a lesson will be taken out of the classroom to a tutor for 40 min, so ur kid will catch up at the same time, the rest of the class won't fall behind, which I think is great. Also the student having a conduct issue w siblings at the school will get 2gether in a safe space, so they can talk it out, feeling comfortable. They really care for each student. The students conduct stands out from so many other schools. If u are a parent who wish to give ur kid the best possible option but you can't afford the high costs of a private school, then this is the pl.

I see a lot of reviews about the old principal. It's true that she didn't do her job as well as she could have. However, the current principal goes above and beyond his duties. IE: traffic control in the morning! My child receives the attention he needs. He's very shy and every one of his teachers h...
