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.

I've been going here since halfway through my freshman year, and it was a total game changer. If immediately felt like the staff actually cared about the students and the school culture is completely different to any other school i'd attended. It really is a space where everyone is welcome and I couldn't be happier I've spent my past 4 years here.

I'm only a freshman but so far this has been the best school I've been to. The teachers here are very supportive and acknowledge when someone needs more training and works very hard to get them to where they need to be. There is endless opportunities as well, such as improv company, musical theatre company, school musical, dance company, Shakespeare company, guitar ensemble and others. I really really love this school and I hope you, the reader, realize how amazing it is too.

better than it looks.I've had problems with depression and anxiety before and it wasn't as much of a problem until I went to this school. The students bring you down, rather than lift each other up.Some of the teachers are really great and interact with the students to help them grow, but the others...

If you want to never make art again in your life, go to school here! Make sure you're rich enough to afford both the therapy you will need from the trauma grown adults will give you and to afford to buy all the art supplies to make free promotion for the school, though!

Recently the school tested highest in the county on ACT testing. Academics and arts are equally important and nurtured
