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.

Beautiful establishment and well maintained. The people are very helpful and mostly kind but the guidance direction for students could be better.

I like the education I have received there, but I would prefer to see the teacher more involved in helping the students out. There was no one to help direct my future. Also, they are not involved with their vocational students.

As a student who's about to be leaving, I will have to say there are the things I have liked and disliked. The teachers are all different in their own way, so every class you go to is going to be interesting with them teaching it. The classwork is challenging but not too difficult that you're confused about what's happening. I dislike that the grading system is unique as we don't do the 90, 80, 70, etc. type, but I can't complain that I have to work harder to get the A. Overall it's a good school that of course has its flaws, as all do.
