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.

The teachers would let students get behind and not help them catch up. The teachers would be extremely disrespectful.

The teachers really like to see the students succeed and it is their first priority. While I would change some little things about the school, overall it is a great place to attend.

There have been times they ran out of food so third lunch had not much to eat I had personally had nothing to eat due to when other food finally made I had no time to eat. Their bullying policy is terrible I was bullied and no teacher or principle cared it took my football brothers to help me also some teachers will tell you that you wont graduate because of one mistake or one failed test.
