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 go there as a student, and it's ok overall. The teachers are ok, but there are some gems. There were a few fights over the past month, I think 2 or 3. Overall, it's ok.

My 8th grade year a 7th grader brought fire bombs to school and stabbed our SRO. I have no clue how he made it on the bus and through the school to the farthest building from the main office with the bombs.

I LOVE this school i’ve only found a couple things that I don’t really like but otherwise it is amazing and as a student I think other kids would like it. It is also been very helpful and supporting.

This school does nothing about the bullying of students. There is no communication for parents of children who are victims of bullying, nor are there any solutions. On the contrary, we find ourselves with arrogant staff who in a few words said that they could not do anything to improve this situatio...

School tolerates bullying and does nothing to help the victims. They literally do nothing to the students that are bullying and harassing other students.

I taught at Carwise as a longterm sub and my son went there, too. I thought the teachers and administrators were supportive, dedicated and caring.
