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 see firsthand in the classrooms very intelligent and bright children lose their joy for learning or just sit basically bored all day because the curriculum is below their academic progress. There is no real sense of community here. Very unfriendly place to be with little done by the administration to address bullying behavior. It's been an overall very disappointing experience and I would not recommend it to anyone. They need to make some changes to the culture at this school.
