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.

This high school has overall been a good experience to be apart of from the best parts with some good connection with the students but it could be more effective since sometimes there is some information that doesn't get told immediately.

teachers are awesome, school board not so good. I think it's unfair how the school board acts. They put themselves first

There is definatley favoritism here. I had no idea how I was going to make it in college. If it weren't for friends from other schools to help me, I would have never gotten my undergraduate degree. I am currently working on my Masters at the University of Texas at San Antonio no thanks to counselors...
