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.

There are a bunch of extracurricular activities that student can participate in whether it be sports, FCCLA, forensics, psychology club, Spanish club, NHS, Student Council. There is something for everyone to join should they choose to. The staff and community supports all of the activities. But, the thing is funding is a little tight so the things we do within the activities would either have to be small or out of the students/teacher's pockets.

There are a few to choose from, not many to offer but they are sufficient enough to keep some students who want to be involved, involved.
