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.

Overall I think it is a great small school with a very connected community. I have a surprising number of classes to pick from considering the school size as well. With many AP and Honors classes available, I am able to learn up to my full potential. There are even some CHS classes offered that I have taken. In my opinion, it's a great education and a fun high school experience.

I liked how the teachers care about their students. I think the way we are closed off to things around us needs to change.

I enjoyed the small district that I was able to experience. It helped me have a have a relationship with the teachers in my district. Being from a small district was also nice for the fact that I was able to know all of my classmates and had relationships with everyone.
