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.

HORRIBLE! My daughter went missing for 45 minutes from school and were not notified until the next day! THEN, a teacher yelled at my daughter (Kinder) and yanked her by her arm off a slide! DONT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE!! The principal only denies the wrong doing of her teachers!!!!
