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.

After going to this school for 10 years, my experience has only declined. I feel as if they need to drastically approve on academic offerings. They offer very few advanced classes for the ones who need it. They best part of the school is the sports. That's also an issue though. All the school cares about is athletics, nobody truly cares about academic wellness.

At viola I have had many good times and bad times. I'm not well adjusted yet to all the new rules the administration has made, but I've always had a good time with the school spirit and clubs!

As far as having a kid grow up here, expect them to be really rude to any new kids. There are some kids there who are nice, but most are just bullys, and if you plan to attend there as a new kid, expect to be non stop bullied by not only the kids but also the teachers. Don't attend any extracurricular there because even if you miss 1 meeting, you will get kicked out and then they will complain very loudly right infront of you that there are not enough kids in there group. Extremely dissatisfied.
