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.

This school gives off a friendly environment. The teachers and staff truly turn into a big family who will fight for you and support you through anything that is going on in your life and it is the best place for people who want to learn in an environment where the teachers and staff want to see you succeed.

i like the fact that in ycd everybody is equal. You get same attention from everybody even if you are a student of color. one thing i would like to change about ycd is they should have lockers in the hallways.
