I couldn't disagree more with the Great Schools rating. This brand new school features cutting edge technology that I have not seen in suburban districts. The principal and staff are extremely hardworking professionals that work extremely well with the parents. The "two way" Spanish English program that teaches kids from Kindergarten on in both languages and all subjects is an extraordinary model for multi-lingual education.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Massachusetts used the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) to test students in grades 3 though 8 and 10 in English language arts and math and in grades 5, 8, and 10 in science. The grade 10 MCAS is a high school graduation requirement. The MCAS is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Massachusetts. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
