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.

My school has always had an amazing culture. School spirit is high, bullying is low, and the tolerance towards all groups has skyrocketed these past few years. The teachers are committed to their jobs and helping us students. My only gripe is the insufficient funding for certain sports.

Most of the teachers cared about how well you were doing and encouraged you to push yourself to do and try harder. They were always willing to help and stay after school so that you understood the material. Very diverse.
