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.

If you can, don’t send your children to this school. This middle school has some good teachers but the curriculum doesn’t prepare students for high school.

This is a really bad school. Admin does nothing to help if you are getting bullied, harassed, etc unless you get a parent involved. They have no time to fix girls bathroom sinks and only 1 works. If a student is struggling all they do is yell at them. I would not recommend this school for anyone.
