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.

We don't have a school nurse because we are such a small school. Bullying has been addressed, and when the teachers and administration see it happening, it is stopped. The school upgraded it's security system so now everyone has to be buzzed in and the doors are locked, so the school is very safe.

We have cross country, football, basketball, track, golf and tennis. We also compete in Academic UIL and One Act Play. The administration is very supportive and are at most games, as well as several teachers.
