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 project based learning is great. The IB program really looks at the whole student and not just score on the page. The admin here really seem to care about their students.

The teachers are caring and try their best to help the students, while many of the local kids couldn't care less. Overall the school is great if you can deal with them.
