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 liked going here! 8th grade was specifically the best cause all of my teachers were amazing literally loved them and my friends were great. it had its problems but like it honestly wasn't even that bad. none of the students really had major major problems w each other and everyone kinda either got along or just acknowledged each other and it was nice cause you didn't really have to be afraid of someone bullying you or any other stupid stuff.
