GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
The school is just OK. They spend money on sports and salaries. The facility is constantly upgraded while the bullying and student support decreases. The teachers scream for more money (while adequate teachers) aren’t producing positive productive students. In my opinion the school (while heralded as a great community champion), is like the town- run by people who like certain families (and their children.) If your child is on the fringes, they may or may not do week- it is literally a coin flip here. If you don’t mind gambling on your child and families future- this is a fine choice. I, personally, would look into private options or home school.

"My mom used to live here and every summer we would be up at the house, playing in the lake, running through the yard and walking around the small lake. There are things for families to do together, a great little senior center, and decent schools. I would recommend Backus for everyone."
