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.

The teachers at Kuumba work very hard to make learning fun and engaging for the students. They are responsive to emails and questions that I may have. They offer lots of after school activities and have a fun summer program with academics, trips, and arts classes.

My child attended this school K to 8. He is currently in grade 11. He had good relationships with his teachers, made some great friends and is doing well academically. This school prepared my son for high school and we are grateful for our experience here.

The Head of School at Kuumba is horrible. Horrible follow through, organization, and communication. My child said she has never even seen the head of school. She stays in her office all day. Student safety is a major issue at Kuumba. Especially the middle school.
