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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

You will probably get the normal peer pressure and acceptance issues that comes with putting teenagers in a group. That being said, most everyone is friends and hang out together. Our school is small enought that everyone does everything which creates few cliques. The school is not very diverse but has had no problem in the past with racism or anything along those lines.

The building is kept as well as maintenance can do without spending a lot of money. Considering our school size, we have a lot of new technology that is available to all students. There are no tutors present, however, there are people who will help you if you need it. The buses run every morning and afternoon and are well kept.

For the size of out school, the amount of extracurriculars offered is relatively high. There is good participation in every club and they are of high quality. The teachers are good at participating and supporting them. However, there is very little funding due to the size of our school.
