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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

My best experience while I was there was joining the sports teams and going to educational and entertainment events. My worst experiences were being taught by teachers who were rude and lazy. I didn't learn anything in some classes. I would like to see them add more resources that can help the students in the future and some electives that teach about real life things.

It's a pretty amazing school if I'm being honest. There's never a class where I can't go to the teacher if I need help. I love my school.
