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.

Probably one of the worst schools and teachers we have ever seen. The teachers are lazy, uncaring, and just plain shouldn't be in charge of any body. The school has no adult supervision and what I mean by that is there are people there, but they are not worried about actually paying any attention to the students or making sure lessons are learned. I'm looking into homeschooling for next year.

Most of the teachers in our school are very hands on and concerned with student activity. They listen to the students and make time to hemp them in subjects they need. Teachers also seem passionate about what they do here.

Not very great. It's a small town and a lot of the teachers are subpar at best. Seems like they are there for a paycheck and summers off. Many seem like they don't want bothered with actually doing their job in the 9 hours they are there.

We have had conflicting experiences at this school. Teachers are, on average, good and informative, willing to talk to parents. Administration, however, in my experience, is kind of a joke. Unprofessional behavior, disregard for statutes and laws, favoritism rampant. And when you challenge them, you...

This is a community stuck in the twilight zone of the 1960s. The school is a sad mixture of low income, unmotivated kids, and teachers that will only do the minimum. The teachers will push their favorites, but deliberately withold advancement from those that threaten their own children or "pets". Th...
