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.

Safety isn't really discussed...Health class mostly addresses healthy eating/exercising etc. Not much for sex ed or drug talks. Bullying is prevalant even with some of the teachers, but it isn't a huge issue. I think otherwise that the school is very safe, because it's so small and in a small town.
