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.

I liked the freedom of the school, how there was no homework (due dated) but if you wanted to do work you could do it wherever you'd like. Graduate early. But the teachers don't really teach they just supervise

at first when i came to this school the first thing i wanted to do is drop out but over the time i saw that this was my second change to fix up my life and with the help and support of my teachers my experience in this school have been great because it helps us finish school faster and also for a lot of us its a second change after leaving a regular school or for kids that want to drop out or have a lot going on in their life.

This school's mission is to help kids who would have otherwise dropped out. The diplomas are real. The teachers work very hard. At times the student progress is amazing once they buy into "I know I can!".
