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 needs better food. Teachers are kinda rude sometimes, the students there are decent. Not terrible, not great.

Everyone in the community is very supporting of our sports teams. We won a state championship and I swear that not only did everyone that has played our conference showed up, but that the whole baseball stadium was practically full. Coaches are so supportive and make everyone part of the team, they promote healthy habits and keep the kids in line. Our physical education class introduces us to many different types of sports, such as soccer and pickle ball.
