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.

I'm a student from this school, The teachers are fine, some are nice and some or not it's just really like a lottery about the teachers. People have been rude to as in assuming I been snitching in the bus which I really don't like to do that stuff. I do have teacher that will make us late for reasons that are preventable by being prepared.
