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 school has great opportunities, academics, the teachers do teach well, I just wish our morals were into play a bit more, every one is a bit rude. I just think the teachers shouldn't be talking badly about people (not all do), some students do this as well. Over all, a 4 star rating is what they get. Mainly because of how well they prepare us for college and life and just learning what we need to learn, and how well they do in providing clubs and academics, keeping people somewhat healthy.
