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.

I started this school just my senior year and so far the teachers I can tell, know what they are doing. My favorite part is being able to be challenged in my classes and learn more than I ever have before. I would like to see the sports change for the better, I think the teams need new coaches perhaps and I think that the school should be cleaned regularly rather than not.

I loved meeting new friends and feeling at home. I would change maybe the readiness for college and life skills, other than that, I love this school.
