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 school is currently falling apart, with promises of a renovation in the future. The issue is that everyone is so focused on the hope for a new school that they are failing to attend to the one we are currently in. All of the classrooms are missing ceiling tiles, the bathrooms do not have doors, and the air quality is so poor each room has a handheld air purifier that makes noise the entire class block. I am ashamed to tell people I am part of this school, because it is one of the worst in the state by far. Everything about the school is falling apart, and no one wants to put the money in to make any changes, even if it will better the lives of the students that attend.

Better wifi, cleaner school, but the teachers are pretty solid, some got off topic, but were always very caring and supportive

I made a ton of friends and relationships. It has and will continue to prepare me for my future endeavors.
Its horrible! Front office staff are great, Mrs. Trafficanti is awesome, the resource officer is great, but the actual school day is very difficult for my child. She always txts me to pick her up. She is incredible shy and sensitive and doesn't do well with her math teacher screaming at her!!
The school building is crumbling and conditions are gross. At least one-third of the teachers are selfish, self-centered with no clue how to effectively teach. The rare good teachers are amazing though, and the arts program can only be beat by those really rich schools.
