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.

Bullying and fights are rampant. Bullies are protected by administration. They constantly pull students from instruction for inconsequential meetings. They will discipline your students and refuse to meet with the parents and show evidence of what they are being disciplined for. The students do not feel safe here or with the administration.

I don't know where the high rating comes from. My daughter has been bullied at this school for all the years she's been here. There is no action from anybody on any level about it. She gets called names and mocked. She gets harassed and her bike gets deflated and called ugly. She's told the manageme...
