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 think the school is really good in a lot of factors but they do not offer a lot of opportunities for growth past what we already have. Most of our top students are attending state schools.

Great balance of socioeconomic and ethnic diversity. AP and IB available. Solid music and arts. Sports are great- just need the new facilities project to get underway!

1. Cheer coach bases everything on favorites not ability. I cheered for 12 years before ever cheering at the high school and I was put on JV every time I tried out. 2. School events are always boring. I usually skip homecoming and most sports games because they're just boring. 3. Substitutes are rude and usually don't care about students needs.
