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.

If your child is a person of color expect them to be bullied, harassed, and called the “n” word all day every day. Current principal ran off half of the staff.

Well starting from Principal and her staff are very rude, unfriendly treating children worse from college. Teachers are not updating grades, not doing their job properly. Will like new principal who knows better job and treat students with respect.
