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.

They don't reinforce their policies. Vaping and smoking is a huge problem in the school. The administration took major budget cuts for the next coming years.

It was pretty okay education wise. I would like to see more of an emphasis on extracurriculars unrelated to sports.

There is a fight almost every week. People are straight and white. It is a very fun place though it is a very entertaining school, there is a lot to be seen. People are only welcoming if you are pretty and talk a descent amount. Some teacher don't care about physical or mental disorders. People are racist, homophobic and very fake. They are very mean to people that are "different". Teacher's are either really cool and get along with students or all the students hate the teacher.
