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 sports teams here are always ranked pretty well, but our team spirit is what is the best. In 2012, the boys varsity basketball was crowned state champions. The school spirit is unbeatable. However, because it is such a small school, sport opportunities are limited.

The small school setting allows for students to really get to know and be familiar with the administration. They are active with the students and hold programs in support of anti-bullying and such.

Our grandchildren attend here and have been warmly received by staff and students, even though they are ethnic minorities. We like the small class sizes and individual attention. Our only complaint is that the district web site often (maybe always?) doesn't work, so we can't see the calendar to know...

Our two daughters attended this school and have excelled at college after graduation. The faculty and staff at this school work hard to help all of the students.
