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.

Excellent! I'm sorry I had to move him to another school. It's what was best for my son, but that school is amazing!

This school is one of the worst schools my children have attended. Not only is the staff very unfriendly but the outside appeal of the school is awful. The other reviews of this school on this site were not written by parents!

This school is probably good for the parents and teachers in the loop. However, if not in the loop, parents, students, teachers, suffer. This is not a fair school in many respects.
