It was okay. I expected a lot better...I was bullied there a lot and the teachers or principals did nothing about it even when we had to sign a no bullying policy. :(

I love that our PTO does so much for our kids!

The school is great if you are a parent who has nothing but time to devote to the PTA and all the school activities, but if you are a single parent with children in the school it is another story. They do not work to teach your child, they just push them through! My daughter has 5 flunking grades right now, and not a single teacher has contacted me to get her help, they claim that she is doing great!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in math and communication arts, and in grades 5 and 8 in science. The results for math, communication arts, and science are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The MAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Missouri. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
