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 live that the teachers will make you feel like family and everything they do for their students is amazing, whether your having a bad day they will talk to you about it or is you are super happy they will say you look happy and make sure you know they notice the small things that make you happy. I love the environment, I felt safe every single day I was in class. The classes are fun and challenging but done are fun and easy and you get to choose what classes you want to be in. I live every thing about my school and was sad to see senior year gone so soon...

Many students go out for sports and stay out for them. Occasionally there might be issues between coaches and athletes, but usually there is a good mutual respect between the two. This school has one big issue, however, and that is the wrestling. Do not join wrestling unless you are certain you will be able to stay in without any conflict whatsoever.

The food here would not be so bad if you had not heard stories of things found in food. I have personally witnessed rubber bands and chunks of hair being found in food. It's better to just buy food from the cart next to where you punch in your number, because these were packaged by actual companies, aka less chances of things in your food. A la carte offers fruit roll ups, reduced fat chips that taste slightly different than the regular kind, granola bars, packs of dry cereal, and occasionally ice cream. Accompanying that is different types of beverages, like Gaterade (name brand!!), apple juice, and different flavored waters, along with Capri Suns.

The school administration is alot of talk. They are very good at covering up their personal inadequacies to make themselves and the school look good from the outside! Bullying occurs at every grade level in this district and nothing is done to stop it- despite the publication that they have a "chara...

Known for sports, and nothing else. Besides a few teachers, the students dont learn much of anything. Administrators are mediocre at best.

Exceptional students fro this school do well in college, but average or below average students are not given enough attention to succeed unless a star athlete. A look at the honor roll compared to current sports rosters shows a big discrepency in grades. Not a great district but not a dismal distric...
