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.

This school made me dread going everyday, the teaching is TERRIBLE they require us to copy down their note instead of actually teaching. The students here an extremely rude and unwelcoming. The office including the principal and assistant principal don’t do anything about serious problems and leave...

The Middle school was horrible. I really hope the High school is better. This school focuses more on working than mental health which has caused so many break downs from me and my fellow peers.
