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.

Overall, looking back at my high school, without rose-tinted glasses, many aspects of the school can at times be underwhelming. Aside from that, it is a relatively nice school.

I think it is a good school and the staff has helped me resolve my doubts, although I think it should improve in some aspects.

Many of the teachers are truly passionate about helping the students in this community become successful. They spend long hours making sure everyone understands topics and offer as many resources as possible. Somethings that should improve from this school is the leadership, consistency, and the accountability.
