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.

The society overall is very pleasing and I love that almost everyone in the school has an extracurricular activity and is highly involved. The community is welcoming to any newcomers and returners and I love that about this school. The worst part of my school experience is when a refinery plant exploded and we had to switch to online schooling and not having a chance to interacr with friends has put me on a realization that it could be lonely sometimes. I would like to see a change of the balance between sports and academics. Right now it seems like the school spends their funding on football and not on the academics which really should be what school is about.

The cafeteria food is not that great so i would like them to have better options and quality. We have a closed campus ,so if it was open we could drive somewhere and get other options.
