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 am new to the school this year and have already learned so much. I have found that the staff is nice and respects their students in the fact they want the students to actually learn. Would recommend!

Very little negative aspects. No student government or sports opportunities. Orchestra is very good.
