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.

I feel like my school as an ec shamrock is so far a good experience. Theres good representation even though most schools and people who don't know our school much thinks we're not a good school whereas in reality we're actually a good school that cares about students readiness and future. The only complaint i have is that need have better communication with parents and help out the cheerleaders as a cheerleader myself they don't involve us much or give us a lot of opportunities like other sports. They often underestimate the sport or find things to not allow us to do certain things which i find very unfair and i wish they have more of a better understanding in the future but as of right now they are very inconsiderate of the ec cheerleaders. But other than that the school environment is healthy and im creating new paths for myself everyday. And i also have fun too they also have this program called AVID that is really helpful and i really recommend it because it can help a lot with you

I graduated from this school way back in 1978. And after reading through some of these post, I just smile and shake my head. From the sound of things not much has changed after all these years. I couldn't wait to get out of there. You had to be able to fight and defend yourself on a daily basis, jus...
