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 facilities are very nice. We have a very nice school, with plenty of computer labs and a bunch of technology. We have many college prep classes. I am actually enrolled in a college algebra class getting college credit.

I think bullying affects many students and parents. Even though our school has a 0 tolerance rate for bullying, it still happens. Bullying not only affects one person, but a whole community. I believe we should try harder to put a stop to it.
