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 is easy to get along with people here and find friends. I feel like I can always ask my teachers for help or email them.

If you care about college readiness, a decent education, diversity or any kind of professionalism this is not a good school for your child. Administ...
