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.

Racist school with useless racist managment who can't even protect 2 little Korea boys from being bullied. Be ashamed of yourself. Can't even imagine how those 2 little boys feel. Absolutely no remorse from those yt kids and their parents.

Parents need to know that this charter school system has already completely failed. The administration is a mess, and if you're unlucky enough that something happens to your child at school, you must be prepared for the unjust treatment that will come from the school. Based on past reviews and the recent incident involving two Korean children, it's clear that this was bound to happen. The truth always comes to light.

There was an incident involving a gun this year however, they just added extra security cameras and non-armed gatekeepers. I see one kid run away from school and staffs are chacing him in the parking lot. I seriously doubt the school's safty protocol.

The trauma my child experienced was so severe that to t...

The kids are taught critical thinking. Overall the teachers and staff try their best for the kids. This...

If you’re a single parent and unable to participate in money donation or volunteer contributions, I recommend not sending your child to this school. Based on the characteristics of this school, the elementary grades have a high proportion of white students, and there are usually about 3-4 Asian stud...
