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.

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.

The school its self is great but the fact that they could be very non-understandable at time to the students. Students must tuck shirt in out of uniform,walk on the right or the green. In my class the students ran over 2 of my teachers (my science and my math) they mainly disrespected them becasue of their resembled age my math teacher is fresh out of college so i believe if they would of controlled the students the year wouldn't been so out of controlled. There was a group of 6-8 students mostly boys that would gang up on students who said simply 'forget them' and jump them. The safety here at this school with students and fights is very unprofessional. This school is only for sertian types of students and it didnt fit my needs i like fast learning with no interruptions but simply the students dont let that happen for other students.
