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.

I would like to see more teachers who know the subject and want to teach. More coaches who develop players' abilities and make sure the academics are of high standards. I got a lot more help then my peers who are latino, asian, or other races.

I love my high school!! I love cheering on the football team in our student section called "The Dog Pound," and creating the yearbook. But, my favorite memory has to be being on prom committee my junior year and seeing our foyer come to life!

This school is all political. If you aren't rich you can't get anywhere. It's really unfortunate for kids who want to succeed and are held by back by the fact that their parents aren't prominent community leaders.
