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.

On the surface it is a great school, but you have no idea about the façade they are putting on until you become a student.

This school only focuses on the academically advanced students. The teachers for the base level math classes don’t do good at helping students when they’re struggling.
