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.

Overall, i had a decent experience there. Sure, he school has many downsides to it, however it is a basic and practical school that gives you the ideas and education in preparation for high school.

Although the school does not have much in their library, it suffices to satisfy the cravings of reading. Overall it is an average school. Besides the awkwardly designed hallways, small science labs, and tiny library, it is a good school all around.

My stepdaughter went to this school for 7th grade. Had an awful experience. Was bullied and nothing was done about it. Sounds like it happens a lot and nothing is done. She said kids are smoking and way too much PDA going on among the kids! Never again will she step foot in that school. She’s lives...

I would not recommend this school as a workplace or to parents. That said, there are few alternatives. If your child says there is a problem, believe them.
