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.

The teachers don't really care at our school. Dont get me wrong some of them are the most amazing teachers that you ccan come across, But most of them are very disappointing. It's like they teach us as much as they get paid. They dont get paid great at all. Most of them just don't really care what you know they just want to get you out of there so they dont have to deal with you anymore.

I came into this school not really knowing anybody, and they all accepted me in. Everyone was friendly and I like how the school is small and everybody knows everybody.
