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 personally do not play any sports, but I do attend many events. It is very important to have your school support these events and games. We have a very good student attendance to all events. We have a lot of school spirit no only at games but in school also. We have spirit days and team color days. Most students do participate . Go Team!!!!!!

The school policies must be working since I do not see many problems. There will be an occasional fight, and within moments it is stopped . The kids involved do get in trouble. I really don't know for sure what happens to them since I don't usually know the kids involved. The only policy that seems to be lax id the dress code. Sometimes they are on everyone enforcing that policy and sometimes I see kids wearing things that are outrageous. I guess it depends on the mood of the teachers.

Academically, it is a very good school, however, the teachers could stand to be a bit warmer toward the students. There is a chill in the air when it comes to teacher/student dynamics. Statistics has shown a significant gain in performance when students feel appreciated.
