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.

I am now coming out of the school just this year and have to say it was in all honestly was pretty bad. There are a few things wrongs, 1 is that most of the teachers I had the pleasure of having were terrible to deal with. The 2nd point is that they dont really care for student input unless you get a whole rally and complain, this does makes sense because of our grade but still doesnt take away from how a lot of what they do sucks. 3rd they treat you pretty badly in person at least, some of the teachers they would force you to pee yourself in class are now running with the 2nd graders and during recess the time is really taken up by the teachers on purpose not letting you eat or hang out outside. The dumbest rule was we were not allowed to talk during recess which made no sense. So to wrap it all up anyone who goes to this school make sure to never listen to the teachers because most of them suck and the rules they put in place are extremely stupid.
