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.

It's a really good school for its small size. Everyone knows each other and the teachers definitely care about the students. The biggest drawbacks are also the size though, because there are a lot fewer opportunities than there would be at a bigger school.

I would like to see changes with the social workers. All the encounters ive had with the social workers were unprofessional and did not help.

Fraud in the High School. Terrible learning conditions: Leaking roof that caused excess mold, bad windows, outdated textbooks, etc. Not very good with anti-bullying as the staff don't proactively do anything about it.
