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's a great community and teachers put in a lot of effort to make sure students are doing well. The education seems good and they have set many students up for success.

My experience at this school was very rough at first. I had problems with other students in the previous years. I just finished my junior year and I am moving into my senior year. I finally found a good group of friends and am taking control of my education and life experiences. Most of the teachers are great and have helped me with any issues I've had. The one thing that I would change would to add more school spirit. At the moment the school spirit is just not there. I would love for that to change. I would also like to bring back the school's music program. This program has disappeared because of the inability to find a music teacher.
