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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The school is the best part, how connected and friendly the school staffs are. They are very welcoming and easy to talk to when it comes to needing assistance or guidance.

I loved everything about my school, the teachers were all amazing and were always pushing you to be more successful. They were there to help you anytime you needed it, they were always super understanding of things happening outside of your school life. The food was okay most of the times as well. The new buildings that I didn't get to see properly were amazing as well.
