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.

Student bullying is massive in the district. Teachers witness it and do nothing. It's reported to the principal and nothing is done. At least one police report was filed due to visible marks left on one student by another, and the superintendent brushed it off.

Do not send your child to this school! There is nothing but bullying at this school and the teachers and principal do nothing about it. We are moving to get out of this horrible place, home school if you have too.

Budget cuts or poor decision making?? This school flushed itself down the toilet by losing a great principal who could handle 2 schools on 1 salary and then "progressing" to getting a couple mediocre principals on 2 "great" salaries. What are we spending in fuel to keep 3 schools in 3 different town...
