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.

Teachers and staff do not care and security is less than acceptable . Guidance counselors don't look at students records to ensure that kids with IEPs get the services that are needed for them to excel. Teachers don't return phone calls to parents in response to their students.

Overall, it is a good school with a lot of good athletic departments. It could be better but it is a working process. We need better building conditions and a better management office. Other than that the school is a goo school.I graduated top of my class and I have gotten multiple acceptances to different colleges.
