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.

It's a great school with excellent teachers and administration who are always looking out for what's best for you. However, accessing resources or information sometimes can be difficult, especially for us immigrants. I would love to have more chances to know how to be better, and for the involvement to be easier. Regardless, the majority of the personnel are amazing.

The overall atmosphere at this school is quite friendly, however many of the students struggle academically and could be described from teachers as unmotivated. The AP atmosphere and classes are very helpful for college readiness and the school has a good staff of well educated teachers who care about the students. The school lacks diversity.
