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 cannot speakly highly enough about this school. The academic rigor and Spanish program are top notch. The administration and staff are fully committed to each and every student which is evident when you look at their 90% and above staff retention rate for the last three years. The principal is a true leader that inspires both students and staff.

Graduated all the way through great educational experience. Teachers were accomplished and caring. Spanish education was welcomed and definitely ready for HS and college classes. Good core of classes.
