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 had an okay experience academic wise it was good the teachers always made sure we stayed on track. The students aren't bad either everyone gets along which I like. If I could change something it would be some staff members because they are quiet rude and can be unreasonable.

I attended from 2016-2020. Overall decent experience but the administration isn't the greatest. I enjoyed the student activities and felt the classes prepared me for college. Wish there were more technical education classes though.

Teachers are very hands on and care about each student. They could encourage more family involvement, but this school is a great place to go.

Students that are not treated fairly. They are not setting an example to have tolerance. I was actually told that I should send my child to a school that would fit his "demographic" better.
