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.

It's seriously amazing and life changing because everyone there is so dedicated of their work and friends. Even the teachers there are great, they care for us and they make us laugh when we have our worst days, they are the kind of teachers who don't give up on our education .
