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 was meh, but I mean it could do better. Personally, I hope that we could take regents examinations in the seventh grade, and posses some of the privileges the 8th graders possess. They should also be more strict with high-school readiness, such as specialized high schools, and insure a good amount of students get in. They can also improve on clubs, sports, and etc. Other than that, the school isn't too bad.
