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.

Great school for a STEM and athletics focus, but weak on the arts overall. Good history department, though. Not very diverse; a mostly cisgender, straight, white population throughout both staff and students.

I really liked a lot of my extracurricular activities like the musical, speech, and one act. I also really liked the opportunity to PSEO at the university. I think that has really helped to prepare me to go to college full time.

They are dedicated and give up time to help their students. Many of them are very likable people and love their work. I have never had a problem with a teacher here, since I choose to stay on task most of the time. Most teachers will put forth the same effort as you do, and that I believe is a great method that I plan to use one day as well. They also use examples in the real world to explain certain material throughout their lessons. My health teacher does an exceptional job at it.
