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 go to school here and it is truly very fun! I get to hang out with my friends sometimes when we see each other. I have been to 3 other schools and this one is the best by far. The food is okay but I know that the lunch lady's work their hardest to try and make excellent food so that is why I gave it excellent. All of the staff and students are very hard working.
