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.

I like nothing about this school. And your staff are horrible. Especially Ms. Jae, nobody likes her. She gives detention for no reason. I got detention for a cuss word in a sentence. And Ms Jae got someone in trouble for "disrespecting". You guys need to do something about it. She is ruining our school. PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE THING.

Teachers don't care about racist or homophobic bullying, boys will straight up threaten or talk about raping people and they do not care. No kids want to learn or take interest in it.

Not enough support and engagement for students and parents. Teachers and staff are overwhelmed. My children did really well in school until they transitioned to Mears.
