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.

It was a good experience. I liked that is it a smaller school, but it is a very liberal public school which is a negative outcome for me.

Teachers and faculty are devoted to the students, with a few that seem to want to be elsewhere most of the time.
5.0 Senior

I love the experience I have had at my school so far. It's been amazing. At my school, we have smaller classes which I love because I feel like it is easier to learn this way. The teachers are great and very understanding. If you are gone for a vacation or you're sick they are so helpful to get you caught up and do it with a smile on their face.
