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.

Personally, this school doesn't have a lot of college opportunities but if you are just looking for a school to pass and have no plans to go to college, then this place will be fine.

There are many clubs and other activities the students can participate in. I don't like many clubs and I am participating in a couple.
