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.

We have no school nurse and it's up to our secretary to decide if we should go home sick or not. Our parents can't even pull us from school without having a doctor's note or something.

We have extra activities and clubs such as FFA, FCCLA, KAYS, StuCo, NHS, Band, Choir, and Forensics/Drama. Our sports include football, boys and girls' tennis, basketball, track, and volleyball. We have wonderful teachers, leaders, and coaches who help us excel as best as they can. Some of them truly care about our successes, but there are a few who don't care at all.

Because of the recent cuts of the school spending in the state of Kansas, schools have had to cut on calorie intakes which makes the food taste worse. The cooks do what they can and make the best of the situations. To be honest I take my lunch to school anyway so I don't know too much about the food.
