  • Good location

    August 24, 2015
    Good location, in San Diego. Lots of restaurants, bars, stores less than two blocks away. Good transportation system. Bad parking options. Management is not too responsive. It will take you more than two months to solve something with them.

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 scale of 1 (below average) and 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 needs as part of the school selection process.
