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.

There were a lot of ups and downs with the school. Overall, we had a pretty good community that was tight-knit. I think the school could have prepared us a little more for what college would be like or for other critical life skills, but it was a decent school.

The teachers care about the students. The culture is very good. The small size means opportunities are limited, but the administration does what they can to help that. No sir conditioning outside of the library so it gets pretty toasty in the warmer months.

Most parents aren't teaching their kids about diversity. Really, it doesn't exist at our school.

The school district is very family oriented and they support the students well, as well as preparing them to handle social and educational/work environments moving forward as adults.
