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.

Talk about a joke. It is harder to get your child enrolled in this school than it is to enroll in a private school. Of course, according to the secretary, it is because they want to make sure they don't enroll anyone that got expelled from a previous school because "We don't take those types."

Very unorganized. This school puts more attention on less important issues and less attention on the more important issues.
