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.

This school give me the best experience I have experience in my whole life. It not just fun but it also helps me to overcome my biggest obstacles. There are teacher who are willing to helps me through in and out of school. Everyone in this school are supportive, giving motivation to one another. Though they may be some kinds of problems through friendship everyone helps encourage one another to become friends again. Accepting every culture and race being as one.
