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.

There are some really great teachers who truly care about the students and push each student to be their best and choose the classes that will help with their future. Their are some who are honestly quiet mean and should probably retire. We have one really great counselor who had the answers to any question but we have another who doesn't know how to help the students and doesn't try to. Our principals are good for the most part but they focus on the dress code instead of bad behavior in the beginning of the year. Most students like our lunch options and if you don't then you can make your own salad or have pizza which is always an option. There are lots of sports options but football is the only sport the athletic department cares about and takes the money the other sports raise and give it to the football program. The student environment is mostly nice. Every once in a while a fight will happen but our students usually get along

The school cares about the student to go to their school. They have taught my some of the most valuable concepts that I will need for the next chapter of my life.

There are many options for academics at this school. Many college classes are available which is very helpful because they're free classes as long as you pass them and there is a very high chance of passing them.
