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.

Graduated with class of 07. Thank to this school and the wonderful staff I was able to complete three years of credits in two, and graduated a year early. Excellent place for highly motivated students who like to work at their own pace.

The thing I like about this High School was that it really taught me how to be more independent. It really prepared me for college as I am a second year college student currently.
