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 like the teachers because they are a one on one and they're not like most bigger schools where they can't just stop and help you. And I like being in a smaller school because our population in my school is 165. And it's out in the middle of nowhere so you don't have to deal with traffic. And everybody knows everybody.

I thought it was all great and amazing but all students here are good at hiding secrets, too good. as i go through my years i learn more and more about people. the more i know the less i like everyone. But every thing else is great. teachers are pretty great except for 1 or 2. Food is better with OPPA. We still need some things fixed though. We need a track field.
