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.

An average yet competitive academic environment with dedicated students and mostly nice teachers and a wide range of extracurricular activities. Potential areas for improvement could include: Mental health support: Increased resources for students struggling with stress and anxiety. Diversity and inclusion: Continued efforts to foster a more inclusive and equitable learning environment. Workload management: Strategies to help students balance academic demands with personal life.
