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.

Loud kids.

I went to this school and I hated everything about it! I was bullied to the point of where I end up not want to go to school which put me behind in work and teacher didn’t care. They saw me getting bullied and did nothing. Don’t send your kids to this school.
