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.

Horrible. This school is the worst school ever. Worst years of my life. Parents are saying its good when it is so trashy and bad. They don't adress the bullying and the teachers are so mean to the students. I want to give it a 0/5, but that is not possible. So i give you a 1.
