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.

When I got my acceptance letter in middle school saying I would be going to "Admitted To Ebc High School For Public Service" I got excited because I would get the know how it feels to be in high school. From seeing the movie High Musical I believed that it would be exactly like that but I just remembered Im not in a luxury high school. In September of 2016 I would be my first day of school where I learned from a open house to the school that they are very strict about the dress code that we needed to wear everyday. I remember going with my Jordans and some how I was able to pass through staff such as the Dean Tev. I think from my perspective this is one that one thing should change because its probably some of the reasons students end up transferring. Regardless overall the school is a decent school for those that stayed focused on what they have to do. There are college classes given to gain college credits and lots of resources from school counselors.
