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 taught me a lot of things, but when I tried to get a boys volleyball team or a coed volleyball team, they wouldn't allow me to. I love all of my teachers, I just think they could have been more flexible with their students.

The teachers at my high school are very good at what they do. They are very helpful and provide an excellent learning program. They like to be there for the students without getting too deep into their personal lives.

Many teachers are great, but because they are strict, (slacker) students don't like them.
