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 is a very segregated school and they put tons of policies in place to keep it that way such as their 2 tiered dress code. While it may have been initially an incentive it's turned into bullying no matter how many meetings they hold about it. But the administration refuses to address the real issue which is their policy so the bullying continues.

i really don't want to hate on this school because some teachers are pretty nice to me. my reasoning for giving this school an average rating is 1. i don't want to give one star because i think it is a too low,i also think that above average is a bit much. 2. some teacher are very mean and expect us to be sitting at a computer for about an hour and pay attention the WHOLE time!? finally 3. i hate how they changed up our schedules! ik we are in phase 1 but still! we have less time away from the computer than a few weeks ago and it is very frustrating!

Worst school ever. Avoid. This school rewards bullies, believes anonymous emails and the principal does nothing and doesn’t care. They’ll believe an anonymous email before you or your kid. Different dress codes for who they like too. You have to pay for every single thing this school does.
