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.

You get what you put in. If you are a motivated student the teachers will improve you. If you want to skate by, well that is what you get, the minimum. This school can be the pathway to excellence, or mediocrity, but you make the choice. This school is a tool to be used.
