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.

The teachers are bad, which in turn makes the education bad, the dress code is dreadful. Our advisory is ridiculous because they have high schoolers doing the same cursive sheets and coloring pages as the 1st graders. The food, however, is amazing which is the only reason that this school gets two stars.

The school switch from a teacher based education to a computer based education system which they call a blinded education. There is no classroom structure in the school now. They allow the student to pick a classroom and a computer to work on any subject they want and with any one they want. Testing...
