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 best experience while attending this school is having the ability to attend events and get involved with the school in a way that I am able to enjoy and not feel like I am forced to do so. The worst part of my experience is feeling I would get stuck on a topic for one of my subjects, but feel like there is not a lot of help for them. I would like to see that their is more support for students, if they need the extra help.

It is a good school. I like how the school is involved in sports and band contests. Especially during football games, the whole school is there.
