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 was safe, we did not see a lot of fights in the school. More extra curricular activities and to end school earlier. Also, better technology for students when working with working with computers since its a school based on technology. Another thing is to not teach students literature and writing skills with programs on the computer but make it human although it is technology school.
