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.

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 it has been very rewarding to attend this school. The STEM opportunities in the town are unmatched, and have put me in a very good spot for college admissions. The only critique I have is the enrichment resources are limited and students must learn to be creative to find great success in this school.

The school is full of kids from all over the country being near a military base. Unfortunately the location and opportunities for the students are very limited and overshadowed by other schools in the are and in the state.
