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 would say overall my school is pretty good. If you're looking for an academic school this school may not be for you as we are highly regarded for our sports and that is where our best communities are. Nevertheless we still have a good amount of AP classes for a small school as well as a lot of opportunities for individuals that don't like the typical math, science, history etc.

More campus security. For the amount of fights there are, I sometimes feel unsafe. I would feel more safe if there was more supervision/security during breaks, lunches, and passing periods.

I made amazing friends had a great time learning and finding my future. But! Some I wish the school had more AP classes and more scholarships available!
