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.

Teachers are excellent, love how they take their time with you if you don't understand something. Cafeteria lunches, horrible. Leaves you to feel sick or throw up in school, students. -0 the school does absolutely nothing with the students who threaten to kill someone and their unborn baby, (only one person has said that, but graduated this year.) and they put more money into football than they do for band, which I think is ridiculous. I would NOT bring my kids here in the future. I don't want them to experience what I went through.

Smaller school. Teachers are able to help you with your learning needs. You can connect on a personal level with your teachers.

They do not make parents feel welcome when parents try to reach out about bullying, trouble in the classroom etc. They also play favoritism. If you have a popular (for this area) last name you get aw...
