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.

Personally, my time spent here has been okay. We struggle to make our school a place where students want to be, and I'm not sure how incoming classes are going to survive here.

I think that this is a very good school. While high school hasn't been the "best years of my life", I know that I learned a lot. This school provides unique classes and the teachers really seem to care about the students.
