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.

The best part of the school is the teachers. All the teachers are super nice and will help you if needed. All the teachers I've had so far have been some of the best ones yet. The worst part in my opinion of the school is some of the student. The students get rowdy and don't listen to the teachers or the administration. But aside from those few kids, the school is a great place to be. If they were to change anything about the school, I would hope to see better student attitude. It is important to see the students being nicer to each other, not hating others, and bringing people down.

Better ACT preparedness and better meals at lunch. I do love that they have teacher's that actually want to take the time and help you.

The best part is that I can join and make club that I want to be in. The worst part is the experiment I had with other students.
