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.

My K-8 school was not too bad, but it was enough that I was glad to graduate. Hawkins was a mediocre school at best. There was nothing special about it; our only advanced program was math from 6-8 grade. We had to take a bus to another school in the district in order to take math in the morning. Aside from that, I have no core memories of the place.

It seems that some teachers lack teaching work experience.

Teachers at this school consistently go above and beyond for their students. My 2 students have had great experiences for years at Hawkins. It has a positive and diverse culture that students benefit from. Ms. Bessette and Mr. Spikes clearly care about the students and the environment at the school.

Since when, anyone can become a new teacher at the school? Even these people with psychological problems and no common sense can be new teachers now?
