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.

Terrible school. There are only a few qualified quality teachers on staff. There are too many unqualified, unprofessional subs and teachers teaching courses, especially in the upper grades. The teachers who do provide quality instruction play favorites with students. There is no communication with parents. None of us know where to get information, especially if you don't check social media. Sometimes, it may be a phone call, but that is rare. The building itself is very nice, however, it is so filthy that my child refuses to even go in the bathroom anymore. There is no discipline, organization, or communication. I do know they have some great students and parent support, so I don't know what the issue here is. It's a shame for such a beautiful facility.

The so called educators that run this school do not care at all about students or teaching. They seem more concerned with paychecks or social media than the concerns of parents. This is the only school I have ever heard of that when a parent calls they cannot speak to anyone, you must leave a messag...

I can say firsthand that this school is bad. I am actually a former student of this school(Late August 1997-June 2001). During my time there the teachers cared more about rules that made no sense like "walk on certain side of hallway", "no piercings". They did very little to nothing about the bullie...
