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.

Horrible school, my kid came home telling me about how bad it was for his first time being at that school. They wanted to use the private bathroom because he is Nonbinary and they had to use the boy's bathroom because he was told by the principal that he had to use the boy's bathroom since he is biologically a boy. Horrible Treatment to my son, horrible service and when I tried to call them I was in que for 20 minutess!!
