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.

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 school overall is pretty good. There are a lot of events to participate in. The school is clean. The environment is safe. The food on the other hand, is one of the downsides. We usually get leftovers.

one of the worst things about the school is the bathrooms, the doors will open in either direction so some of the locks won't actually mean anything and the locks themselves are terrible.
