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.

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.

The school is just too chaotic for me. The students there are too wild and they do what they want without respecting authority.

Overall it was good. The deans are freely strict if that makes sense, like they do their job. They won't enforce the rules unless a teacher has told them that you've broken them. Some of the teachers are really cool and not really strict, so you can just chill and do your work in their class.

Not the worse school you could attend, but not one I would recommend attending. Lots of fighting, poor lunch, unnecessary rules, uniforms (if that matters to you). But there are quite a few clubs and such to pick from and some of the teachers and classes are okay, but most teachers aren't great.
