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.

The only issue that I found in the school was the bullying. Most of the students just found it as playful teasing but it was not .

The teachers were great. Though they and the students would have disagreements, the teachers were able to get to them and help them through the class.
