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 was honestly more like a jailhouse than a school. The campus is bleak, rundown, and dirty. Student fights are the norm. I am glad that I pulled my child from this deplorable school especially since I have heard of students smuggling drugs and bullets on campus. It certainly wouldn't surprise me if metal detectors were installed soon. This school is a sinking ship and you would be wise not to get on it.
