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 dont like the food its nasty we always end up throwing it away. The eight grade teachers are nice but some 7th grade and 6th grade teachers are mean and have a really bad attitude. We also only get 20 minutes of pe and its nothing. We dont even have P.E clothes.

My son has autism and he was stabbed by another student and they tried to blame my child for not communicating with them? They knew he would as I told them to please watch as he isn't able to always communicate these issues... sure enough. He was stabbed. And they did nothing.
