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.

My over all experience at my school so far is that it is a small school and every student that has problem with school work can automatically get help by a teacher because that class average is about 20. What makes my school unique is that since my school is small everybody know who your are. If I would to choose to go back to this school again, if I could do it over I would and because this school is so awesome.
