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.

For such a small school, the sports and clubs available is not too shabby. I have a great experience playing sports here and my friends have had great times in clubs.

A majority of the students do not seem to care about their academics. Most of the students just want to pass the class and graduate, not stride for any higher accomplishments.

This school is located in a very small town in Central New York, so crime isn't really something many people think about when they live there. We do drug sweeps and have practices for fire drills and if someone dangerous is in the building, we all know the protocals we are to follow. The nurse is very nice, although no one really has much need of anything super medical related. The procedure for allergies is followed to a T in this school, especially for peanut butter.

Very good. Smaller class sizes, understanding teachers, and a good community

I rate this school terrible. The staff doesn't care about your children, unless you are part of the local clique.
