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 school needs to stop re-using food that has already been cooked and has been out sitting for a while. Therefore the food makes students become sick. Students rely on that food because they either do not have time in the morning to make lunch or they can not afford to make there own lunch. Also the school does not properly discipline. Also the schools computers are very bad and old and they keep breaking. Also the school needs to get rid of the bug and rodent problems that exist in the school. These type of problems are known by most students because of an incident earlier this year when there was a rat infestation in one of our Latin rooms.
