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.

Although I have been in this school for 3 months so far, I am pretty happy with it. Teachers and my counselor guide me whenever I need to. They are always helpful and I kind. I am not afraid or shy to ask advice. I love most of my classes, especially biology and English 4. I never regret going to this school.

It's the only high school I've gone to. Despite that, it has made a great impact on me. Their robotics club was why I wanted to major in computer science. One thing I don't especially like about the school is the congestion. Some students linger around in vital hallways and the line to scan in for lunch extends out and fills the main hallway.

The school itself is nice, and my education has been great here. Though, the uniform policy is definitely a bit weird. My school likes to play favorites and let in certain people with shorts or skirts, then kick other people out. The staff definitely seems to like more students than others.
