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 this school makes me feel safe. If I ever was bullied or need counseled my school would be the place to go. Or if there happen to be intruders i would feel safe in my classroom with my teachers. We have a very secured campus, the principal would go above and beyond to make sure none of the students or staff get hurt. Health? It's okay here. The nurse is always available and always has the right solution. Sometimes she can be a little rude but that's everyone.
