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.

Sports are all parent / coach politics. Start pay to play young or you will be ignored by coaches. Staff and faculty care more about social issues than academics. It's all for show. Ended up in private school. Don't be fooled here.

Classes and teaches prepare students well for college courses and their difficulty levels. Culture within the school and between students is not negative, but very divided.

This school is one of the worst schools I have ever attended! They do not care about you they only care about if your college worthy or going to college. As soon as they realize you aren’t or want to choose a different career path (ex cosmetology, plumber, barber) they say you won’t be successful in...

This highschool is the worst school ever, they treat their students and their parents like trash and create nonsense issues. They have no regards for what they do and they don't want to see their students to succeed!! Never ever send your child here unless you want issues!

Excellent. I have two different students as children. Both are successful in different ways. I appreciate the opportunity for success in my children’s education.
