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 would like to see this school become more scholarly and escape the negative culture that so many people in the area has adopted. There are some genuinely great teachers at this school, but there are just as many bad ones. In the last two years, however, administration has found working solutions to many of this school's past problems, and it seems to be improving the quality of the school and its students and staff.

The rules that are at my school are unnecessary, for intense you can get written up for running in the hallway. And most of the kids don't care.

I love the teachers here they truly care about their students and make a bond with each student to help create a safe and environment for them. The one thing that I hope changes in the coming years is security and possibly more cameras so that when kids steal stuff or try to hurt each other they can catch whoever did it so that the other students have a safe place to learn.
