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 is terrible!!! Bullying is constant and nothing is done. I was in the office several times a week for the same kid hitting and picking on my kid. The school board is useless as well as the district office. I homeschool my kid the final half of 7th grade. Moved out of the district before 8th grade school year. Enough is enough the state should step in and intervene with how piss poor the school is run. Don't send your children to this school if you don't have to. If you do I suggest a call to your state rep that's the only way things will change.
