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 bring my lunch every single day unless the school is having chili for lunch. I wouldn't eat at the school but there haven't been many complaints on it.

Even though we don't have softball, swimming, tennis, or many other sports, almost all the kids in our school participate in at least one sport/extracurricular activity. We have practices every day for sports and a few times a week for extracurricular activities. We are all dedicated.

Our student body isn't aloud to wear running shorts because they are shorter than your fingertips when you put your hands down to your sides. I don't really agree with that rule, but the holes above your knee and really short shorts; I agree with that rule very well.
