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.

Overall, an excellent school to learn in. I feel my school is preparing me well to continue my education in college. The honors and college prep programs are extensive and very well organized. And the school has done an excellent job in making the transition to remote schooling. I also believe that a school is only as good as what you put into it with regard to effort.
