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 is almost like a normal high school. We have a lot of clubs and activities but don't have very many classes since we are a small school. Athletics aren't the best but are fun to attend. Most classes are pretty easy and teachers are amazing. One thing that disappoints me is we don't do weighted grades due to not having very many AP classes.

All of the teachers here are amazing they treat you like adults and with respect. They are always here to help you and make sure you know everything you should. They generally make sure everyone is successful in everything they do as long as they actually try.

It was an amazing experience, as all the teachers there care about their students and it honestly is great to go there. The school lunches weren't terrible but the variety of stuff you could buy helped lighten the load. I just wish there was more emphasis on other clubs then just the sports at the school.

The only reason it has one star is because I had to give it at least one to start this review. I had 2 children in this school at the same time in different grades. We moved here from out of state where my children both had IEP's in place and both had 504 plans that were sent with their transcripts....
