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.

It can be toxic at times if you don't know how to stand up for yourself. Before the end of my junior year, I got rid of all my friends. I don't have a group I hang out with, only people I am friendly towards. My grades were always dwindling during my freshman, sophomore, and junior years. This year though, now that I have gotten rid of the people I used to call friends, my grades have shot up and most of my grades are A's and B's. The teachers are amazing and supportive and are always willing to help a student out and don't mind helping a student out after school if they have time!

this school reflects the negative side of small town life. There are a few good teachers, however most are completely biased and project their personal feelings into their teaching methods and / or grading.
