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 school is pretty okay. There are some amazing teachers, but that gets negated by the fact that there are also some terrible teachers.

I attended Somerset from first to twelfth grade and saw how the school grew and improved over twelve years. Overall, it was a great experience. I made friends for a lifetime, and I was taught very well, which ultimately prepared me for college.

The school is very strict on their uniform policy as well as their tardy and absence policies, they only offer two Ap courses (AP Spanish and AP Art).
