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.

I liked that we had rotations of electives every quarter. For example, first quarter you would have P.E., second quarter you would have music, third quarter you would have art, and for fourth quarter you would be in the computer lab. I liked it because all the students were able to be exposed to different topics and learn new things that could help them in the future.

I hate this school my child feels like they are in prison. They scream at the kids ifthey don't have their shirts tucked in. At lunch they have to pass the trays down from kid to kid and I have tried to call the principal and assistant principal and they will not return my calls about this situation...
