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.

The teachers don't really care much about their students except for a select few. It seemed really easy to pass my classes because they don't really care. Bullying and harassment definitely exist here.

Some teachers are better than others, but most teachers are there to help when you need the extra help

Overall, my school is somewhere that I can be a proud graduate of. I have enjoyed my time here and have made many memories with my friends and my teachers. I love being able to spend time in the library during my free time to catch up on studies and to read. I enjoy the lunch and having free time to socialize during the day during free hours and during passing time between classes. I am really proud of where I came from.
