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 that most of the teachers were well educated on the curriculum they taught. However the circle shaped school.... Not so much.

What I've enjoyed most about my school experience here has been the teachers. I have had many great connections with them. I do, however, wish that the sex education class was more lgbt inclusive and sex positive. I also wish that the school board was more sensitive and more eager to accept criticism.

this school is terrible i would not recommend sending a kid here the staff is unprofessional and since it is a small school targeted bullying happens alot more there is gang activity and drug use is very common among the students none of the teachers care making that rub off on the students making them unmotivated and having very poor academic skills/grades if you dont want your kid joining a gang or getting addicted to drugs DONT send them here!!! ps and there is no locks on the stalls
