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 majority of our school is very intelligent, it's impressive and very difficult to try to keep up.

From what I have heard and seen is that students get punished accordingly to their actions. And most don't make the same mistakes.

Even though the school has some problems I woukdn wish to attend another school. It can be difficult and stressful at times but it only prepares me for college. All the high expectation my school had for their students only forces to want to achieve the goals and standards met for us. This has and will help people.

I despise this school. The racism is a culture here. The faculty know about it Ava tears it like oh it’s kids being kids. Worse school ever! Definitely filing law suit!
