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.

I am an 8th grader and I had a situation with this girl trying to jump me and have the whole school hating me and spreading rumors about me my mom came to the school to complain that this girl was saying she was going to harm me and hurt me and the school said there's nothing they can do about it it's, not their problem to deal with. I told the school cop at the time that I did not fell safe walking to my bus without getting jumped, so he walked me to the bus and told them to move along. The only other thing I have to say is we have had a problem in the past with teachers and students. Are school is also big on sports but the coaching mediocre at best. I am so glad to be out of here next year and this school had made me and my mom think of moving schools so many times but somehow we lasted till the end of the year till when I am moving. I would not send my kids or recommend anybody to send there kids here.

The school is good with most of the students but can be really strict at most times. Most of the teachers don't make sense and get irritated when some students ask honest questions about the projects. Other than that I guess the school is pretty good to go too.

We just moved from out of state and our experience has been great so far! My daughter loves her classes and the way they teach. They lose a star only because their building layout is super confusing!
