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.

It's ok but if you want to send child here by choice I recommend somewhere else. But if your zoned here you will have a great time. Once you establish "groups" of kids you hang out with you will have a amazing time. And you will love it. Parents be careful there are lots of fights here

The new principal has really made a difference here. At first I was apprehensive about the school but my child never complains about disciplinary problems, the school has great communication from teachers to parents, and the kids learn a lot. The theatre teacher is amazing and gets even my shy child...
