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.

All the teachers are awesome. They are dedicated with helping you learn and grow. They stay after school everyday to give extra help when needed. I've attended this school starting my 9th grade year and everyone there made me feel welcome. They always have activities to make everyone feel inclusive.

If I could rate this school negative stars I would. Horrible leadership, teachers are disrespected daily, students are allowed to be violent, thieves, and disrespectful. Not only do the students not enjoy it, leadership makes it impossible for teachers to stay and feel supported. Awful awful awful.
