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 best part about my school is probably how helpful the teachers are. If I need help with a certain subject, they always try their best to explain the topic to me and being an immigrant whose first language is not English, that help means a lot to me.

The teachers are very open and kind. There are lots of groups and opportunities to be apart of the school especially school events. The facilities are on the higher end and it's a great school as a whole. On the downside, there isn't much diversity.

The Counselors are a joke and not helpful at all. They let their "teacher of the year" leave without a fight. Administration pass the buck and are weak at best. Pulling our girl out! One year was too much.
