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.

This school is the best school I’ve ever been to. The teachers are so nice and the environment is so welcoming. It has a very chill-like quality to it that makes you feel so excited to come back!

I love that my Daughter attends this school, he is more focused on her work and looks forward to seeing her teacher's. I wish I knew about it sooner.... What a great program this is for her to catch up on her credits and graduate on time.

Great alternative to get away from the drama of high school - my daughter does more work and has learned more here than in her home school she previously attended. The teachers are very involved with their students
