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.

Plains Elementary School has been a wonderful place to work for the past 2 decades and the best choice of schools for my own children to attend. The teachers go above and beyond to make each day engaging and meaningful and it is quite apparent that the students' well-being is the #1 priority to all staff members.

They complained about what I sent him for...

Plains Elementary is the best school. Everyone there truley cares about the students and it's like one big family there. I know that when I send my son to school there that he is being treated just as good as I would treat him. This is just the best school I have ever been involved with!
