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.

Has a lot of work to do on preparing students for college. I feel as though they could get a lot further. If they had the parents more involved with their child's education.

my experience with this school was not great i experienced a lot of racism and hard time with my iep. i eventually would figure it out, but my parents and i were constantly had to email the teachers and ask them to follow my iep. along with reading books with the n-word in them and being called on as 1 of 3 black kids in my class to speak on "how I feel about the n-word" and having my teacher say it and think that is funny yo ask all three black kids in the class how we feel and if we think its funny that used that word.

Good environment and teachers who care about not only education but wellbeing. Building is dated and could use upgrades
