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.

As a student that had gone there the changes the schools had gone through due to budget cuts were hard, most of the money went to the football team who didnt even win 9 out of 10 games, while all the other sports had to fend for themselves. the newest principle tried to get more fun classes like cosmotology but my sibling who still currently goes to the school said they took away their working hours in that class, and ability to use chemicals away so they arent able to practice out techniques on clients or maniquines. the education overall was okay and i adored majority of my teachers cause they were chill and understood we had problems. it was a very small school though so rumors and problems got around fast. their were a few fights and bathrooms were being locked up and monitered, even if we had a 10 minute e-hallpass limit they still made us wait outside the bathrooms to let us in one at a time, it was overall a weird experince.

Unless you are in all Honors of AP courses, you will not be prepared for college. I suggest using the NJ school choice program and go to Lenape Valley HS instead.

I feel my child is in a safe environment where she is academically challenged and given opportunities to learn and grow outside of the classroom with extra curricular activities.

Only giving one star because no star isn’t an option. Do your kids a favor and send them anywhere else.
