GreatSchools Rating
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 a scale of 1 (below average) 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 family needs as part of the school selection process.

My high school is great. I enjoy the sports and activities. I like my teachers and classes. I wish more students would get involved in our activities. We need more parent nights, or family things. We have a good class and group of students.

The best part of my experience would be the friends I have made throughout the years and some of the teachers and administration, they have been great at helping me stay on track and guide me. I did not really have a worst part, but there are a couple of teachers that just did not seem to want to be there and teach. My favorite teachers really went beyond to what they needed to to help me when I needed it. If I could change anything it would be the culture there, a vast majority of the kids just do not care and the adults do not seem to care that they do not care. Get those kids reinvested in the school and the culture.

The school spirit that all the students and teachers lived up to was a fun experience. What I didn't like was how some teachers seem to not care about their job, it didn't seem like they took it very seriously.
