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 like how the faculty is trying to push us to "change our mind, change our world" and push us to be better (although it doesn't work since the students are so hard-headed). What I don't like is how the teachers are very childish and like to talk behind people's backs, just like the students here.

I will not recommend this school. I had gone to this school for 6 whole years and I hated it! The students are rude, disrespectful and very unwelcoming. I used to be an outsider, I had no friends. Because I was different, because I wasn't related to any of them. Oh, to what I experience, the school'...

As soon as you walk in the doors you have a safe, fun, relaxed etc. feeling. I know all the staff put 110% into their jobs. And thank you for that.
