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.

This school set an example for all schools but that was pre-2010. The school lost many teachers after 2010 and many programs in addition to changes in people's positions. Now it is run by inexperienced people and is quite frankly going no where. There is nearly no art program nor athletic.
