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 experience at school has been very positive and beneficial. Teachers share a lot of their knowledge on college and other career opportunities. These teachers also care about their students. They will go the extra mile to make sure that you understand the material.

I would like to see the school have more safety precautions, as well as have an officer in the building. I would like to see the school go up in school ranking with academics. I like how the teachers are open and let you talk to them. I would like to see the sports grow in population and have more kids go out for things. I like how the parents are always involved in the students lives and will always help us. I would like to see more college readiness classes.

our schoolguidance counselor is the best. When you need helpshe is always there for you. Office staff is awesome staff they care about you. There is really no bullying going on becuase our school makes sure we dont have none. If we do have bullying they take care of it. we do have dress code but it really good dress code. Like make sure your dress or skirts are finger tip thats good idea becuase girls will walk in with it so short even shorts . No tank tops and thats good too. there is more but most of these are important. Attendance they really watch that. you can only have 5 abstance that are unexcuse which everything else turns your homework and stuff you missed that day a zero. They turn these stuff in when you miss aot of school. Our school is only trying to perpare us for life and i love this school.

Some teachers you can tell they are only there for the money not to help the students. They don't really take punishment seriously. If you are not a sports player u mean nothing to this school and if you are you get away with anything. Don't get me started on the bullying it's so bad and if u say so...
