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.

They don't keep the gym clean, there are dust bunnies everywhere. The staff act like high school students who never left high school. There were two cases of contamination in the cafeteria food (black and green mold) this is a health concern for the students. Two teachers have used profanity against students.
