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 liked the rigor of the school, however it gets super stressful at the school. Theres a few teachers who really shouldn't be teaching. However the office staff are super sweet and helpful to all students. There's also a major division within the school, there's cliques everywhere.

I had a great experience there were many things that I learned. Along with many people that I was able to get close with. The preparation towards college was great. Along with the opportunities that were given such as the teaching project and the ability to earn an AA.

All I can comment on is the administration, which seems to be lacking... for over two years I have had to complain about messages left on my answering machine about a child I don't have either missing classes or having detention. Despite multiple conversations with their staff, the problem has yet t...
