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.

I would like to see our school be more involved culturally. I would also like to see them renovate a couple of areas and maybe add a few things. For example: a men's volleyball team, better food, etc.

All the teachers and staff are so supportive and truly want what's best for their students. It's also an extremely connected community, like a school family. There's not any politics like there is at most schools.
