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.

Graduating June 2024, I've spend 12 years of my life in the same district. It is nice knowing all of the teachers and students, as we are a small school. Being so small, opportunities are limited, but more of a one on one style which is good. We have a really good Tech Ed department, which I took advantage of. I do feel prepared for college.

Great school. Loved all the teachers and staff! The coursework they gave me helped prepare me for college and the workforce. They have many courses with WITC and Northland so that you can get some college credits as well as AP courses.

I like this school because the size is small, but there are still many opportunities. Our classes are very small usually and we can get a lot done in groups whereas in a large school I don't think I would learn as well.
