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.

A change I would like to see the school doing more activity with the students. And letting the kids have more say in the school rules.

My overall experience at SBP was an eye opening experience. I started with a bunch of friends, and following the crowd. I still did what I had to do, still kept my grades up. But throughout my 4 years, it helped me grow as an individual. I became an individual and learned from mistakes after finding myself in trouble at times. I learned many lessons and when I left for college it was a different experience. I became a better version of myself.
