My son is in kindergarten at Plains. The teacher is excellent, very responsive and extremely intuitive. She intimately knows his strengths and needs, and she communicates them so very articulately. My son loves her class. He enjoys physical education, art and music--and speaks highly of those teachers. But his main classroom with his first grade teacher and the assistant is where he says he loves to be. The principal too is an excellent leader! We could not be happier.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Oops! We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Public and charter school test scores for most states come from the state Department of Education. The most common reasons we might not have this data are either that not enough students took the test or that the school was recently opened, and its scores have not yet been reported.
