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 had an amazing experience at this school. There were many school spirit weeks and made being present at school very fun. Thr school had many activities outside school, which made students very involved in the community.

The school dress code is whack because only certain people get in trouble. Also, they only recognize students in athletics and not people who do well academically.
