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.

The senior counselor made sure that all the class of 2024 received the help they needed to graduate and they had 100% graduation class this year like last year. The only problem the school have is they pick who they want for senior officers, prom,and homecoming and not the vote of the student. Overall nice school parents need to be more involved and better activities for the students beside sports.

This school is terrible!!!! It makes me want to kill myself just walking into it! Most of the teachers care about their students but others just downright don't care! It sickens me and all of my colleagues agree. The students are ill behaved and don't know when enough is enough. No home training, la...
