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.

This school has down to earth teachers who truly care about their students. They all pitch in and support the kids lifting them up and boosting the morale. The teachers work hard to ensure that students get what they need, understand the lectures and learnings and are always there for them when help...

There is a lot of bullying at this school. Staff didn't do much about it. I was accused once of stealing laptops. I never stole a thing. There ARE a few teachers that care. I'll admit. One took time to help me pass.
