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 is very new, so very nice and clean, but it does not have all the classes I would like to take. We don't have any honor classes nor do we have all AP classes that is open to most other schools.

I think it was an average high school. You have to put the effort in to have a fun experience, which I did. When you put yourself out there, others tend to be open to building friendships and there are a lot of fun opportunities that will come up. The staff is pretty friendly for the most part. And the teachers that you build relationships with will really help you along your years of high school.
