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.

Well run IB program contributes to academic strength, good student culture, good teachers, fairly nice building and facilities, minimal sporting success, high quality and versatile science department, and overall a well run school.

Coming into high school, I expected more freedom, but it didn't feel like we were given that. Strict hall pass rules and phone rules have been implemented throughout my time here. While most teachers show they care and want students to succeed, the administration acts as they want to control us. High school should be about making your own decisions and growing. That can only happen with some freedom and trust in adults.

alright school, though there are alot of little problems going on throughout. The school culture is hyper-focused on sports though, which puts other clubs in the back.
