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.

We always have the necessary medicine for headaches, congestion, colds, etc. inside the office. I have rarely witnessed stereotypical bullying in our school, but it's still there just like it is in every school.

The majority of our teachers are friendly, loving, and very supportive of their students. I would consider some of the teachers as very close to me and a trustworthy friend.

There are very few if any after school activities besides sports and not many people participate.
