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 just not much diversity. The curriculum for math isn't as good as it used to be when I went there. My little sister goes there and the way they do multiplication is more complicated now than how it used to be. For example, for multiplication they use the box method instead of just regular multiplication which to me is ridiculous.

This school Is horrible. Take it from a CURRENT STUDENT, the teachers are rude, kids are out of control, and I have a hard time remembering anytime I walked by the teachers lounge WITHOUT hearing an F-bomb. Please be warned anybody who is moving to Hampton VA, do not send your kids to this school.
