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.

1.0 Freshman
7/20/2024
My overall experience with this school was ok and boring at the same time. The only one two good things are the education is really good and some of the teachers are good. If you have a unique type of cool personality, you won't probably find your people in this school, but there is a chance you'll. Overall, the school is very bad.
4.0 Senior
1/17/2020
The teachers genuinely care about the students they do their best to make sure everyone is caught up in class but they don't get a lot of funding. I enjoyed my time here and I hope they get the funding and support that they need.
4.0 Junior

Faculty is very cooperative with the student body. Teachers offer help when needed, and give an appropriate amount of work.
