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.

Crazy, out-o-control students, rude, disrespectful teachers, and an incompetent, uncaring administration! Hate that my child has to go to school here. Hope it is closed and re-opened with whole new staff. I read it is on the list to close. Crossing my fingers!
