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.

It was an average school system that accomplished what it sought to do. The biggest change that could be made would be a system more dedicated to protecting students. The number of times I watched my younger sisters get bullied by other children and saw the administration do nothing to combat what was going on was insane. You can't preach that you're for the children and turn a blind eye when they're struggling not to drown.

Some students that deserve to be disciplined are not because of their parent's status or how much money they have. Overall the administration is friendly and involved. The guidance counselor is very nice and pleasant to be around.
