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.

One thing is the teachers take time with each student to make sure you understand your work. Another asset this school have is the environment. It was like a family there. A flaw that I hope will change in the future is the resources that are available for the students through there learning process. I believe that if this school had those advanced resources then this school would be spectacular, and no other school would compare.
