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.

Gangs are a big problem at this school. Bullies are also a problem. The bullies harass the nice kids, and then the bullies get spanked on their rear ends by the gang members in front of all of their peers outside of the gym. I don't recommend sending your kids to school here.

Fights are happening almost every month, teachers are too strict because of it. Lazy students that have no manners. I don't think they even care about the students that are failing. Enroll your child here if you want them to have a terrible middle school experience.

I would rate my experience at this school as frightening and eye-opening. Too many kids are allowed to act like animals and are not shown on how to properly behave like young men and young ladies. Too many fights go on at this school daily. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE!
