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.

I am a 8th grader at this school and in all seriousness i dread coming here everyday also being a student who struggles with depression , family problems , anxiety etc its very hard most teachers are pretty cool but none are very understanding... some teachers are very boring and only play videos and give tests to early and don't give students time to process what they are learning.. the students are horrible so much bullying and just rude and disrespectful some bully the special needs children and its heart breaking and the staff does nothing.. my main problem with the school and they dont pay attention to bullying and disorders that arent always visible.. one teacher I can say is very understanding, loves their job , helps students in any type of way is the Spanish 1 teacher.
