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.

The issue of bullying is addressed if there is a problem brought forth. The Youth Officer is very accessible and available to listen to concerns. The school feels safe and the parents are alerted about any issues that arise during the day.

I never felt threatened at any time during my time at this school. The security guards are always within sight, and there are very strict rules on when and who can enter the school. All visitors must first check in with a guard on the way into the school, then must buzz into the front door and then must sign in at the office. All doors are always locked except for in the morning when the students arrived. I always felt very safe.
