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.

My school is great. I was offered many opportunities at this school. I got an opportunity to be in Allied Health And Medicine class and that was great. Only 20 hand chosen students got to participate in the program. It was the best experience I got to experience.
