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.

I have only attended this school for two years but I have experienced that the students don't really care and that the education especially when it comes to STEM courses is pretty minimal. The teachers and students are generally very kind and welcoming however I don't feel like the school prepares you for college and careers

Taking the higher classes definitely allowed me to learn more. Nice sports facilities. Good food options across the street. Many clubs to be a member of (ex. Asian Student Union, Black Student Union, Environmental Club etc.)The bathrooms need to be renovated.

The best part about the school was it's diversity. The worst part was some of the inflexibility of teachers for those who need special accommodations getting from one end of the school to the other. While temporarily disabled, I discovered there were little to no accommodations made to the old building like ramps. The focus was also on football and not much in the way of academics.

Really bad school. Teachers have s3xual relations with students and administrators know & keep quiet about it. Some of the students will have s3x with principal to get other students expelled. Avoid at all cost!
