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 very inclusive, with such an welcoming community. For the reason that you have to take a test to be selected for this program, we only have about 40 kids in the class of 2026; with such a small class compared to other high schools, you get to know everyone quickly. The teachers there are good influences to learn from, and they strive to see the best you.
