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.

3.0 Junior

BASE is not as dangerous as other schools but the 5 floor trek up the stairs and the many vacant slots of teachers make it a hard learning environment, while the teachers are friendly many of the students are not and often times you will see fights occur between students outside of the campus

The school has not the most favorable guidance conslers but they are helpful & they can come in here to help. The school has a serious problem of favortism which puts people above others & system that will let some slide over others.
4.0 Senior

Overall, this is a really great school with dedicated staff not afraid to take up a challenge if it's best for students. The students are at the heart of the school and that's pretty seen throughout all aspects of learning here.
