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 guidance counselors are the best. They really get you going, and they are always there for you if you need them.

It was okay for me because I can be friends with everyone, but I did have some bad experiences with one teacher. Otherwise, it is a pretty good school. I even started a club one year, but after I left, no one else ever kept it going.

Tons of support for sports; little for education. Everything else is the best around. Also, this school has had the top MAP scores for years. Take that other schools.
