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.

My experience at this school definitely wasn't rememberable in the learning aspect due to my experience with certain teachers and the lack of support and structure the school gave. My High School years were only remembered because of the create connections and relationships I have built along the way.

i like that most of the teachers are nice and easy to talk to. i like that my child's english and math teachers have challenged her. i do not like how the sports are run and how children that are not eligible get to take a spot from students that are eligible.

It is absolutely appalling that this school employs a teacher who A) doesn't know the one subject in which she is paid to teach and who has to "relearn" her subject every year even after teaching it for 20 years, therefore if she doesn't know the subject how can she possibly teach it. B) can't teach...
