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.

Overall the school is clean and tidy. There are many clubs and activities to choose from and leadership opportunities. Many APs are offered though there are some that I wish were offered. For dual enrollment, the school takes half the cost which makes it much easier to pay for the class.
