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.

I think that a lot in the high school needs to be fixed. It's very run down and is not suited to meet students' needs. I'd also like to see more activities that involve students available. I feel like an addition of new clubs/activities will help students get more involved.

The teachers are sort of hit or miss you got very straight forward rule followers. Then you have really flexible teachers. They all teach differently it's not hard to tell if a teacher dislikes you. If I was going to change something it would be to hire another Ag teacher that way the FFA there has an advisor. If you are wondering about safety dear lord I was a student there for 4 years and there was only one fight with fists ever being thrown.

This is a great opportunity for students like myself, looking for financial means in order to receive a valuable education.

Some staff intimidate kids and there are no repercussions. Teachers unions run the show and the Board of Education is too afraid to stand up to them- so instead they kiss up to them for fear of retaliation against their children. Staff also allow kids to change their names while keeping it a secret...
