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.

Although some of the teachers were very likable and gave parental emotions, the school was very dirty and under kept. Bathrooms were infested with spiders and roaches. Benches were always broken and ran down and lockers weren't in use. There were at least 6 bathrooms, but they closed 4 and only kept 2 open, one being the main bathroom everyone used and the other being the bathroom for the students in construction.

I like how the teachers are very caring and want to see you succeed. The things I would change are bullying and putting others down. There also needs to be less kids that are distracting other students in class.
