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 a good school I really like it. The teachers are great. However, when I got in a fight with a kid for calling me names and starting the fight they completely justified everything the kid did. Overall though it's a good school

I went for two years, graduating Tuesday. I don't know what you parents are talking about, saying the principal is "questionable". He may not want to be buddy buddy with everyone, but he is the best principal I have ever had. He runs the school amazingly, never letting any children walk over others...
