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.

So far the teachers have been responsive. The homework coming home is moving my sons learning forward and challenging him to keep on task. So far this is his best experience since kindergarten. He is being challenged daily and even small details like the timely return of graded tests and assignments...
