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.

This school is not a good school. Academically and socially. My son learned how to play The Choking Game from students at this school. Because of this he passed away 4 years ago. After this happened I contacted the principal and found that the year before there was another student who passed away from similar circumstances. Nothing was ever mentioned to any of the parents so I never got the chance to talk to my son about this. Not to mention the teachers are not invested in the kids and therefor they just herd them through like cattle with out making sure they will succeed.
