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.

There are some good teachers and some that are not so good. The food is okay and most of the classes are boring. The MVP (math visions project) math program is awful.

As evidenced in their latest match up against Athens Academy. Losing in the 3rd quarter, the od...

I was very dismayed last night to see the coach of this football program throw in the towel in the third quarter. I understand that loosing a game can be hard.
