Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Overall I like my school so far as they prepare us for the real world the best they can.For intance letting us take acutal college classes in campus with other students.These are the things that can help us prepare for what we might persue after high school as we have gotten a glimps.To be honest the only bad thing would properbly be the walking as we do have to go outside of our school building most of the time for our destination and its not that bad though.Its a great choice of excersie and overall very beneficial.To conclude Its amazing theres nothing bad about this school,they try their best to cover anything the students need such as textbooks etc.Highly recommend.
