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.

Teachers are amazing and the rest of the staff too. They maintain the building well. The sports games are always packed with students and other teachers. The clubs are awesome. The students there are respectful of newcomers. Also, the safety of the school is great. They are one of if not the only school in gwinnett county with a bomb shelter.
