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 school was filled with diversity between its students and knowledge. But there are problems with how clean the school is and certain people bringing students motivation down.

this school needs to improove with the teachers and principal on open houses becouse the waiting time in between classes is to long and when it your turn the teachers sound like a tape recorder they tell the parents the same thing as the person before you.
