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've haven't graduated from there yet but I think the school is good to me so far. Sometimes the school can get a little to crazy regarding the students and staff but so far I like it

I loved this school with a passion, I have graduated in 2019 and I still keep in contact with the teachers I've had since my ninth grade year. At some times I really use to have no motivation to attend school at all but all the teachers would sit down and talk to me and tell me about how they know I will be successful.

Its actually a pretty sucky school. The people there are unfocused and extremely disrespectful towards teachers and other students. The work is not challenging at all and there is a total disconnect between the students and the learning.

This school has helped me so much. I went from getting straight C's to straight A's and the teachers are very helpful. I did feel like I wouldn't fit in because I am a different race than most of the students that go here, but I've fit in perfectly and made lots of friends. I've experienced no bully...
