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 cafeteria offers very few things. The variety is poor because it's the same food on a monthly rotation. Never anything particularly fresh except for the bread products. It isn't easy, but it's possible to eat vegetarian options. Other diverse food needs might not be met, because there aren't any people in need of kosher or halal foods in the area. Lactose intolerant kids always have other beverages available than milk.

Although there is great student involvement, everyone at this school is basically the same. They are all white, straight, middle-class teens. The acceptance level for others is very high, but just be aware that there is little diversity.

I feel that prison food would be better.
