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.

Good but also very segregated on popularity. They also tend to leave students behind but keep moving them forward. Very small school in the country which is awesome!

Typical small school. Says that they have the best test scores in the state, solely because that is what they teach you do. Is take standardized tests.

I loved the small town feel of the school, but being in a small town just was not for me. I would recommend the school for people who enjoy a small environment.
