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.

My friend had to take his daughter out of school because the school would not enforce its own anti-bullying policy. School taxes are too high as well.

this was once an impressive school but the neighborhood poverty level it seems has risin and the quality of the people has gone down. I attended this school years back and it was great, my kids attended a few years back and I realized just how bad it has gotten. Im sure the staff are also not happy...
