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 teacher at my school are very knowledgeable and hardworking. They put in way more time and money then most teachers. They are open to tutoring anytime when needed.They are very hands on and keep everything as realistic as possible. They truly do care and love the students they teach. There is no doubt in my mind that they would sacrifice their time and money to help any student in need. They are very consistent in grading and treat the students fair.
