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 good school. It has started promoting the health sciences program more recently, which allows students more opportunities for beyond high school education but it is still limited.

The building itself is very nice, the actual education is mediocre. Administration is awful at communicating, very unclear.

The building is beautiful (built in 2012). All around outstanding place, and great community to have such a big/nice school. the right teachers and staff are always higher and exceed all expectations. Have gone to school here for 4 years and wouldn't ask for anything different.
