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.

The school has its ups and downs. It offers many programs, clubs, and sports for students to join. However, our sports department has not been doing well for a while now. The teachers are supportive and many advanced academic courses are offered, but there will always be room for improvement.

Many of the teachers and the staff are nice, although I do think that areas such as the bathrooms could be more clean.
