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 facilities were certainly not amazing. The building seemed very old and outdated. However, the student population was great. There were no special "popular" cliques. Everyone knew each there, and were all pretty close. I like this school for the social aspect, rather than the education.
