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.

Great school with good teachers who like to make sure that their students are actually learning. They really try to make sure your ready for whatever is after high school, whether community college, University, gap year, working, etc. Also pretty well funded I think.

I would like to see more funding for the Dual Immersion Program as well as more classes of language. The science program as well as the math program are very well suited, as well as history classes. Availability in extracurricular is also ver good.
