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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I honestly really didn't enjoy it here. Much of the student culture was harmful. There were so many bullies, racists, ignorant students, and so many more. Apart from my peers, my experience wasn't terrible. Most of the faculty is pretty good and there are a lot of academic opportunities.

The school is beautiful. The campus is huge and is a colorful school with paintings everywhere and a gorgeous outdoor area called 'the canyon'. The classes are rigorous but will prepare you for college with the IB Program. Classes vary from large to small, around 10-25 people per class. There are many different courses one can take. There are interesting classes such as forensics or theory of knowledge.

I think the teachers are amazing and the assistant principal has been very helpful she even gave me her contact number outside of school. I couldn't ask for a better support team...

They have switched the curriculum in the middle of their 4 years and took away a ton of choices for classes that...

If you did not have your own computer you could bring to school and you couldn't rent one for fifty dollars, you would have been screwed. They do not care about low-income families. It is also ve...
