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.

DO NOT TAKE YOU'RE KIDS TO THIS SCHOOL. From what i heard and saw, this school may change your child from a straight A student to B+ student. This school also does not provide your child's nutritional needs and if they have an allergy, make sure to pack them with lunch since this school's cafeteria is HORRIBLE

This school is very horrible!!! The worst school i’ve ever been to. Not because of the class work and assignments that’re being given; but the teachers who take no action to students who are being bullied. MEANWHILE, there’s a “Respect for all” and “No bullying zone” in the hallways of that school b...
