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 school campus is very nice. However the teachers do not help the students reach their full potential. I'm in grade 8 and I excel in math. I am a grade 10 math level. My teachers hold me back and do not help me to progress. I am in accelerated classes and most of the kids are not at an accelerated level. They just have good test scores but they do not do work or pay attention in class so the whole class has to be held back in order to accommodate them. The kids switch classes by themselves and do not get reprimanded for it. The school needs teachers that set rules. The principal, Mrs. Walker is fabulous but her staff could be greatly improved.

I did not like Mr.Tomasello he treated the parents with no respect at all and the staff were mean. My child is much happier now that she transfered.
