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.

It's a small school. But it's a very friendly school. The education could be funded better always, but we are getting renovations and that's a big emprovement to the building and learning environment. It's a great community, always doing its best to make the school and sports a safe place for anyone

The club promotes school pride and allows everyone to get involved in athletics even if you aren't on the team.

This was my first time attending a public school. The small student to teacher ratio allowed each student to get specific help with academic problems and promoted a personal and connected atmosphere between students and teachers. The culture of the small country town promoted accountability as well...
