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 enjoyed most of my teachers but didn't like the lack of more advanced classes they offered. I love the sports that the school offers though. I played football and soccer. I won two state championships in football and watched my school's basketball team win two state championships as well. I'm honored to be part of the best class in the state and of all of Lyndens history's

I was a former student and would like to say while there were amazing teachers, I did not appreciate the support staff giving up on its students from time to time. For example, principle Alexander told my mother that I'll have to deliver papers and guidance councilor mentioned that someone has to pi...
