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.

The only real problem with this school is that there isn't any diversity. There was maybe 1 person who wasn't Caucasian in my grade. There wasnt really any type of peer pressure to do things that you didn't want to do, actually there were more peopleaking sure others weren't doing anything illegal and ruining their lives before it starts.

The school is okay. The teachers seem pretty great, but there is little effort to include parents in school events. It very different from Homer's elementary and intermediate schools, who are more open to collaboration with parents and community. Their open house at the beginning of the school year...
