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.

Poor academics, drugs and bullying in school, I pulled my daughter out when I found out they had failed the no child left behind multiple years. I believe the teachers really try however I was not impressed and would not choose this for my child if given any other option.
