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.

I made some of my greatest memories at this school and wish I could go back. It was actually exciting to go to school unlike now in high school. I made some of the best friends and had the best teachers I've ever had. This school made a huge impact in my life because of the great principle and teaching staff.
