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.

Same group of people revolving in the building year after year with an understanding to keep their paychecks by eliminating new hires repeatedly.

Terrible. All around terrible. They need to get rid of the principal and train the teachers. I pay a lot of money in taxes. These people are not effective and are getting paid a good salary for the rest of their lives to be average at best.
