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.

Lots of resources to find what you like to do and how you can fit in. I feel I could have been helped more with my financial aid but they are working this year towards making it an easier process for students.

The older kids are really rude. Gym teachers target colored kids. Coach for cross country is really mean and pushes the kids.

My daughter did very well in this school. I did feel at times that the school itself moved slower than other high schools in the area. I feel that they do not prepare the student for college life or the real world. But my daughter is graduating with honors and was accepted to a top NJ school.

As a student of this school I as well as others agree that the teachers don't teach well and some of them fail to teach and just give us videos. The new iPads we got are very cool and allow us to progress in education but on the other hand many kids just use it to play games. This school can certain...
