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.

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.

I love my school because it is small and close knit. I know everyone in my grade and most of the people in the grades below me.

I am very pleased with all of my current teachers. They grade according to the work the student does rather than who the student is. The only problem is that some teachers are unavailable before and/or after class occasionally.

This school, like any other school, plays favorites. The best experiences are always during Outdoorsmen programs and Volleyball time.
