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 had a nice experience in my high school, but I wish my freshman year was different since I had to learn online because of the pandemic. That was something I was not use to and that made it feel like I never had freshman year. I enjoy the most, my art classes and my art club because the teacher is so nice and encourages you to try your best. I also enjoyed my dance class because I had fun while dancing. I personally don't enjoy that much history but in my junior year I had a history teacher that made me not hate history.

Being a school of such mixed cultures and races, cliques don't exist. I was in the marching band, whic...
