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 best part was a few teachers I had and the experience of making friends. But some of the worst parts were the lack of communication from the office with the parents. Overall not bad but there were plenty of moments I got frustrated with my school. For change, definitely try to get communication better. Also less reliance on the Minga app, which often doesn't work properly.

I really liked how i could connect with so many students and staff. I could tell them my life story and they would tell me theirs. everyone has a hard life and stuff they want to get off of their chests.

Honestly, I hate this school. The teachers don’t teach you, the staff doesn’t enforce rules, and bullying and harassment is non stop.
