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.

As a parent hearing countless stories of my child being sick and tired of seeing so much bias towards students who misbehave is infuriating to me. An example being my child getting detention for not wearing a tie while seeing other students being left off the hook for the same situation. (As well as not informing me of the detention is quite absurd and inconsiderate not knowing where my child is. I understand my child has to wear the correct uniform but to this extreme? The extreme of my child getting in trouble for wearing a sweater and sometimes getting detention. The concept of such a strict dress code I think there are other things to worry about.

The school does a great job to prepare its seniors and juniors for college, by getting them set on what they need for college and how will they get what they need for college.
