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.

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 really liked the science and agricultural classes and programs offered there, but they were short on funds. Although they had little money, they did the best they could and I really enjoyed going to school there.

The teachers, curriculum, scheduling process, and workloads are great and manageable. Getting into special study options and popular classes can be a challenge. We only have a couple of college courses that are available and our English teacher has to recommend us for the one course otherwise someone might not be able to get into it.

This school is very big on stopping bullying, which is very good. We have cameras everywhere to try and prevent things from happening and to keep us safe. They are putting in a new system now to lock every door but one when school starts, also to keep us safe. We do not however have any type of school nurse. Anytime something happens where we need a nurse, the ambulances are called which is very expensive and usually isn't needed. Besides not having a nurse, the school does keep the students and staff safe.

If the students needed help from staff it was spotty. Getting kids ready for college was a joke. I pulled the...

I graduated from this high school in 1953. It bothers me that nothing has changed. Recently, I related to a friend that my high school education was very inadequate. I decided to research what Cornell is doing in 2011. To my dismay, not much is happening. Despite my meager academic background, Estel...

Too much emphasis on sports and not enough on academics. No wonder the score is so low.
