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.

I rather enjoyed my time here. Most of the teachers are very good and experienced in their field. Sports are well renown as our basketball program is amongst the best in the region. The school is rather diverse, in that it includes a large American Indian population while also adhering to the other races. Clubs are rare and nearly all are acamedic and hard to get in to, but look good on a transcript.

Some decisions are accepted but people still complain.

The main focus for this school are usually concentrated on farming/ranching/business. We have had many successful and professional artists and musicians graduate from this school and no professional sports players, yet the sports teams receive substantial funding while the arts program is still using floppy disks for saving art projects.
