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.

This school is horrible when it comes to communication. Teachers making accusation about students that are not true and this school should take the time to evaluated the teachers. It seems as though the teachers are not there to teach, improve and or make sure the kids are being heard and understood...
