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 think I would have enjoyed it more if they listened the students when deciding what dress up days we would want and not be so strict and just let the kids have some fun. I would say the worst part was the food and how it would often take a long time to get it leaving you with less time to eat. I would like to see more technical program speakers like the project yes program for those students who are not looking to attend college. I think this would benefit a lot of students mainly male who do not do the best in school already but would be interested in participating in a hands on program that is more suitable to their learning needs.

The best thing is that teacher do help you on any work assignments you need but some teachers don't and sometimes we don't understand what they mean and they also get mad or something that they say were you not paying attention or listening at all. After all not every one might get it right away like we still need more explanation so we can know what to do. An experience is that some teachers and staff are will to help us out and some are not because they be like you were not paying attention when we do. Yes I would like to see some changes or improvements about the school like better food and not the same type of food ever day and better understanding from teacher when we don't get something right away when we are learning something .

Honestly the experience is good. There are a few teachers/staff that are a bit "old school" that may get in a lot of other students nerves but other than that the teachers/staff are really cool. The only thing that I personally think might need to change is the school lunches
