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.

This has been an outstanding year for my son. He has recieved several recognitions for doing his best. The school celebrates the success of their students. His teacher has been loving, compassionate, and understanding. She has proven to be a teacher who loves her job and not her check!
