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 building design itself is bad in the fact that 7th and 8th graders are constantly around high schoolers, leading to more mischief. Plenty of the staff there have done unethical things yet are not punished or fired because there's no one else to hire. The main persons in charge make it hard to create any positive change for the school, and they're too controlling.

The staff were nice but the education lacked. I did not feel that I was prepared for college after graduating.

Had to pull child out of school and place in another due to bullying issues and lack of administration support on issues. Other parent had some of same issues but would not support trying to correct.
