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 really good school, with the best band program in the area. There is also a fantastic engineering course and many clubs to help students find people who share the interests they have. 10/10 do recommend.

I feel like that school administration is giving kids unnecessary sever punishments to prove that they are strict . But in turn their treatment make kids feel like they don't like the school anymore and decrease respect for the staff. Which i feel is not good for the school as well as kids. I would say the teachers are great. Its the administration and their decisions.
