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 academics are okay, but if you don't get it, teachers WILL help you. The curriculum is average or above average. Scheduling processes are less complicated if you ask questions and visit your counselor frequently. The workload is now manageable compared to IB, what I have now. I thought it was hard when i was there, but I now know it wasn't bad. Popular classes are art and technology.

Even though it's not exactly the perfect school, it's still one of the memorable things I've ever been into when it's over. Just for the sake of this review, I'll gladly explain my experience in this school.Back in 6th grade, I visited here just to find the understanding of how good is this school....

At this school the discipline is terribly low and students are way to out of control the teacher can barely talk and I as student have a problem focusing and all they do for disturbing other students all they get is detention
