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.

It is a downright, below average school. It doesn't give kids a lot of freedom to speak most of the time. The teachers have very mixed attitudes and don't listen to their students or even "teach" them. At P.E, they are highly sexist towards boys, trying to start a bad habit of boys not respecting each other and making some feel left out. They also unfairly put kids last and they have unfair opinions of them. They should change these things to be fair for everyone so no one feels better than some people.

They do not have an appropriate way of talking to parents about children. This school should really have...

I have received zero feedback from this school concerning my child. I have missed numerous activities that have taken place because of this. The teachers don't monitor the students. Teachers just let the kids basically do whatever they want. Please do not send your kids to this school.
