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.

There are three clubs at our school. We have Life Savers, National Honor Society, and Spirit Club. Our clubs are welcoming to every student. We offer open gyms for basketball and volleyball, as well as weight lifting. Both the students and teachers are interactive with the clubs and other activities.
