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 was not treated very well at this school. I was bullied countless times and the teachers did nothing about it. To make matters worse, some teachers bought into the bullying and joined in with the students. At the same time I was never encouraged to discover who I truly was at this school nor was I given proper help to do so by the teachers. I was beat up many times and the people who did so didn't receive more than 2 days of ISS, and I was even attacked in a bathroom stall and dry humped and those students only got one day of ISS. Needless to say, I did not have a good time at this school. I never found my place in life through that school.

One girl even got her scalp ripped out according to a younger student and the bullying here is insane. If your child has a unique style DO NOT SEND THEM HERE. The...
