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.

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.

For the most part, I've really appreciated the teachers and my education here. There are many opportunities to get involved in the school, but I wish there was a better school spirit atmosphere. I feel like this school is good at sports and clubs overall, but you would never guess based on how little care there is among the students.
