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 love that it is a small school. It's difficult to get lost when everything is pretty much close to each other. Everyone knows each other and the teachers are welcoming.

It was not what I expected high school to be. It feels like administration is there only to collect a paycheck. Most teachers are good, however. Students who excel in school are not congratulated much. Administration is more focused on what we wear rather than our education. Clubs have no participation because the leaders do not create things for the students to do. Not something I am going to look back on and miss. I feel sorry for our student body.
