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.

This high school is large and has many types of students. However, there are so-called "clicks", so you might not fit in if you don't relate to people. The sports and prep rallies are fun. Though, the classes are packed and teachers have less one-on-one time.

It was pretty ok. Majority of the teachers I had were awesome, but the administration is not very likeable. We do not have the best athletes, our boys teams do not preform very well, but our fine arts and academics are very good.
