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 wish they were less concerned about the grants they receive for the warm bodies in the seats and actually teach. Little to no local history is taught. We are known for the last green valley yet no agriculture is implemented. I appreciate the highschool is now offering more trades but it means nothing if they are failing prior to entering highschool. Get rid of the Chromebooks. It was told they would learn computer education and I can assure you my third grader couldn't show you how to find a file. It's a waste of time and money that the school doesn't have to spare.
