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.

This school was so welcoming to me, and I'm both sad and excited to leave it when I go to the high school next year. I moved at the begining of seventh grade, and so many people were welcoming to me and wanted to be my friend. I love the atmosphere, and have a great time at school each day. I am in the band, and even though I don't get as much class time as I did in 6th grade (band everyday, I lived in TX), this year the new schedule is a plus getting more class time for band. I like the level system for our core classes, and feel I really understand and like my enrichment level classes. I am blessed with being on what I think are the best 7th and 8th grade teams, Denali and Olympus. The teachers are amazingly nice, and will help you whenever you need it. I play lacrosse, and love the girls program. Overall, great school, great experience.

This school is going down hill. You pay 13000 a year in taxes and something has drastically changed from when my youngest graduated here to my third kid. Teachers as much as they are highly paid 4 out of 5 are down right nasty to teens! I mean really nasty! Some teachers never reply to emails ever,...

I really think that students must go to this school if they want an excellent future. There are excellent team building field trips, that helps build friendship, teamwork, and leadership. There is so much more to this school. All thanks to the amazing staff.
