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 was lucky enough to get a decent education because I was in honors and I had great teachers who thoroughly prepared me for high school but I cannot say the same for the general education students.

This school is also very old and not well managed and the rotation of administration made things change constantly.

This school isn’t quite that bad if you keep to yourself and stay away from the “popular” kids. The school isn’t bad, it’s a nice size and the teachers are okay, it’s the students you should look out for. I wish there were more accepting students and that they would realize that not everyone is just...
