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.

It's a descent school..although not enough diversity. I attended a while ago, but i still remember mostly jewish kids at school. lots of parents involvement and lottery system to select class moms.. That was really nice as so many moms are staying home and wanted to be the class moms. my mom had done several years of class moms and lots of voluntary time at school. Art docent program was nice too, but i don't think it's on anymore as I remember some budget cut. Cool teachers too.
