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 has cockroaches everywhere they refuse to serve us food when they still have them the food in every school is bad so I can't complain about that. One teacher loves the little girls this place is infested and they won't do anything the worst part is that they spend their funding on buffets and food for the teachers instead of fixing a broken roof or fix their electricity no one likes this dump are class agrees with me they banned words that arent even offensive to us with no purpose. If you see this principal then please fix your school for the students for use. Thank you
