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.

There are various types of extracurricular activities at this school, including National Junior Honor Society, SCA, Drama, Newspaper, Teen Living, and Yearbook. My favorite was SCA (student council association) because I was involved and this club was beneficial to the school. Activities included planning school dances and shopping at the mall for Angel Tree recipients.
