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.

The staff is very supporting of the students & works to help the students realize their potential. The Leadership program works to support the STEM part of the school with drones, rockets & 3D printers. The program has many after school programs, such as archery, drill, color guard, PT just to name a few. The Leadership program has a curriculum that not only teaches students how to become tomorrow's leaders today, but works to build a community that supports each other.
