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.

We love Watkins! Great teachers and tremendous growth in my kids education. Both of my kids were behind in reading at the beginning of the year (testing in the 10%). Now my son is up to 76%!

Watkins is a wonderful environment for learning and growing. I visited my daughter's classroom and was so impressed with the dynamics of the class and how all the students interacted. As I said the atmosphere school wide promotes learning, character building, personal growth, and acceptance. Amazing...

Wonderful school - the principal, teachers, and staff all love and care for each child and show an interest in their education. They encourage personal growth and responsibility. The parents who volunteer are some of the best I've seen (and I have 3 children, ages 7, 12, and 16).
