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.

The teachers here are great. They are all consistent with grading and homework, the quality is top-notch, and they vary their teaching styles.

Everyone at the school is very involved. The most controversial thing we talk about is our 4-day school week.

Principal Rob O'Neal is leaving and my kids and I are so sad. The school looks better than it ever has and the climate is one of the most inviting and friendly I have ever seen at a school.
