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 love the teachers, math, film, this school is amazing. I'm done with 9th grade, the next year I'll be a sophomore, this is a little bit sad because I'll miss my math teacher, he is the best teacher that I've met in my whole life. I liked his class, I got a 100. I also like the thing with the film class, it is funny that we can use cameras, some programs to edit our projects, we have the computers, that is interesting .

Attending this school I have been greeting by people with so many different backgrounds and passion. There are a ton of clubs and sports going on so there's something you can do everyday. There are many resources to go to if you need help academically, or emotionally. The school has a welcoming environment and has a place for everyone.
