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.

The best part of the school is the different kinds of students, but the worst part are the teachers that condone bad behavior and say they had a 'rough' day. I've seen students hit and scream at students and teachers and they don't do much for it.

Experience at this school was terrific. I am a Grandmother who has seen and been involved with many different schools. The support from the leadership of this school concerning my grandchildren has been exceptional.
