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.

My experience in the school is ok nothing more nothing less. I enjoy the people around, my peers teachers ect but of course it's not always great. I'm currently a senior I am enjoying the school so far there's fun activities and everything obviously it's stressful but it's fun. Keep in mind if you always do your work, participate in clubs/sports, stay out of drama, and be respectful everything will turn out perfectly for you. Overall I would rate it 8.2/10.

The school's Administrators tried to make the school safe learning place for everyone and I want to thank them for that but it's not working. People are rude to you, if you have 7 classes only 2 or 3 teacher who are actually nice to you. The lunch servers are very rude.

The teachers are absolutely AMAZING but that principal they have needs to go. He doesn’t even support groups like DH who are having THE LORD MAYOR OF LONDON TO WATCH THEM SING! He wouldn’t even let my daughter go home when she was sick
