I never realized what a great school this was...until we moved this year. Wow. Great PTA, great teachers, great events. Be sure to enjoy it while you are there and not when you move on!

Our three kids went through this school; and it is awesome. Smart kids, committed teachers and parents, a good facility, and administration that (usually) doesn't keep it all from working well together. No wonder this is a consistent top state-wide school.

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.
