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.

Everyone was segregated in a way, the whites didn't get a long with the blacks, the Latinos had their own group. There was a lot of peer pressure when it came to the consumption of alcohol.

There wasn't a lot of tutoring available and when there was you had to pay for it. The technology was good, all the computers worked fine, the computer lab was nice as well
