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.

Lots of good opportunities but they don't tell you about them enough. The staff are either really good or bad. Very small.
3.0 Senior

At times, I feel as though the school will not adequately prepare me for college, as we use a proficiency-based grading system that does not reflect grading systems used by colleges.
3.0 Alum

In my experience, I did not learn much at all. I still got fairly good grades but I was not challenged enough and the classwork was very disinteresting. Good resources like early college and other options. No diversity. I have several long-term substitutes that did not know what they were doing which is another reason why I did not learn much.
