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.

The school spent money as quick as they earned it, which was fine as they were making renovations. However, while they were completing renovations, they ignored other problems the money could be used for including new computers, more staff members, and new textbooks and materials. The staff members at this school are pleasant and the general area feels welcoming.

People put so much effort into spirit weeks, pep rallies, etc. and then none of the students or teachers participate. Most teachers don't want to stay after school to help unless there's something in it for them and most also play favorites.

Our school food sucks, there are no options other than the one dish served. So if you don't like it then you should have brought your lunch or just starve. Barely ever seconds, small portions on trays.
