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 school is decent and has good academic opportunities but is low income causing the student experience to be mediocre.

In our school, there are many people who try to be nice. Overall, the students are nice and the teachers are understanding.

It was an interesting school. Very not diverse, but the community was extremely nice. The campus was large, so you got alot of exercise in. I would compare it to the Fresno State campus in terms of relative size. If you took certain classes, it'd be a 5-10 minute walk, and you'd have to go fast to make it on time. In all, it was an enjoyable high school and I'd highly recommend, despite the shortcomings.

This schools offers many programs and excellent academics for the motivated student. It just hired a new principal and he seems much stronger than the previous weak one they had. I think it's a good school and headed in a better direction.
