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.

My overall high school experience was great. The school was very involved and active as were many parents. I would like to see the school food change because as a whole it is not the best. The best part of my high school experience was going to north half in volleyball.

Overall, my high school experience was pretty decent. Most of the staff were kind and approachable to talk to. The teachers were like parents but at school; they always were ready to be a listening ear if there was a problem at hand. In addition, COVID-19 really affected a lot of the activities that were usually coordinated throughout the year. With that being said, the administrative and staff made sure we had any form of normality during the pandemic.
