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 terrible. Kids are being accused of selling drugs when really they didn't do anything wrong. And when kids demand to do drug tests, they get a horrible response "we can expell you". There are kids being bullied, harassed, and just judged. I don't go to this school but I have friends that do. From what I hear, this school is teaching these kids how to lie. Just listen to the kids.

It is a very close community due to its small size. There aren't as many classes to choose from and fewer high academics than other schools.

Great school in a wonderful district. Their small size and focus on educating the whole child is evident across the district.
