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 are the kindest. They like to connect with all the children. The students have issues with bullying and nothing getting done about it. Teachers need to work on giving detentions and just giving all kids an easy pass.

We don't have many students to take part in our sports. Our school has a co-op with Cambridge High School in order to have enough players for most teams. Coaches aren't always the best because our community is quite small.

The food at our school follows the healthy food standards, but it doesn't always taste the best. There are options such as salad, but again, they don't taste the best.
