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.

It's wonderful, in my personal experience I've met great teachers and friends who have supported me and pushed me to my academic and artistic limits. Its programs are wonderful as well if there's a class you want they have it if there's a club you're looking for we have it. This school is so diverse and sturdy with its classes and academic activities/clubs

Academically, this is a place that is going to show what kind of student you are, and what kind of person you are. If...

What can I say? I graduated from CRLS as a National Honor Society student, Vice President of the French Club, and an actress and dancer in many CRLS plays. I got an acceptance letter from every single college I applied to after CRLS...rejected by NONE! Why? Because CRLS prepared me with a top-notch...
