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.

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 administration appears not to be mentally capable of their job. During the Covid pandemic they had all these rules to limit any contact with each other. Directly after the mask mandate was lifted these 'geniuses' had a meeting together where they decided to instill bathroom passes. Meaning that with a global pandemic still going on and now no one's wearing a mask in school now we all have to touch the same bacteria filled bathroom pass just to be able to go pee. Instilling pointless rules onto children like needing a bathroom pass to use the bathroom does not prepare them for the real world one bit. Do you really expect a school run by people with that sort of mental capacity to be in charge of your children's education? Trust me their enrollment rate is low for a reason. Not to mention the morals of the people that your children are expected to go to for help.

Teachers get assigned classes to teach that they did not go to school to teach. Students health is continuously put at risk during the COVID-19 pandemic just to barely meet the minimum guidelines. Several teachers and students have been tested positive yet students still attend regardless of contact tracing.

The majority of the teachers were very passionate about their jobs thus making them wonderful mentors.
