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.

Overall, academically, the school succeeds. The rate of students who end up in good colleges is amazing, but the school experience is terrible. We are an office building converted into a school, which means sports offerings are almost nonexistant. Admin is also consistently a bother and is extremely ineffective.
