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.

It is a good school for education, but if sport is not that good then the only thing that makes it to states is the soccer team. The teacher for Math and English are really good at their job but when it comes to science not that good. The Club could be better with more money to get them to do real stuff like go out of the country and learn. The food here is really good and the lunch lady is very nice. The staff of the build are really strict can use the bathroom doing class and then get in trouble for not trying to poop themself.

The teachers that are their most of them are really good teachers but their are a few that just won't teach. The administrators are good they care about your academics. One of the counselors are questionable but other than that the school is a really good school.

I enjoyed the teachers and the lax student body. Although the usual high school drama occurred, it was to a lesser extent than I had seen; however, the principal and vice did nothing to stop bullying from happening. The level of excellence there is outstanding and the extracurricular activities offered are catered to the artist, jock, and intellectual alike. The quiz bowl team and the debate were both highly ranked and fun programs.

They don’t care about their students and they pick favorites to not discipline them. They also only care about who is doing non hurtful things over kids vaping in the bathroom.
