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.

The principal was effective she tried to put out programs for us. The guidance counselor was amazing everyone had a great relationship with her. The office staff were great too they had a very fun vibe to them, always in a good mood. the attendance wasn't too great and the uniform was terrible nobody ever wore it, including my self, they weren't really stricted on it.
