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.

The food tastes like rodents baked in an oven, sometimes unbaked. What I mean by that is the pizza is always raw. The teachers are very strict, they yell a lot, give a lot of detentions, etc. The art teacher blows the whistle in the room really loudly, at the kids. The girls on the cheer team and pom squad, get a bit of a special treatment. The teachers do absolutely nothing about kids bullying, beating people up, etc. A big problem is, a lot of people are scared to go to the bathrooms because, there is a lot of the times someone waiting outside of it to beat someone up. The staff does nothing about this. This month, there was an incident of people doing something unpleasant in the stairwells. There is a lot of bullying, staff doing their jobs incorrectly, fights, in fact there are so many fight pages online for this school. Overall, this school is not very good and I don't recommend going there.
