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.

This is my first and last year at this school so I don't know too much about this district or even this state. But, so far I like it here, the students are rather welcoming and so are the teachers and staff. If you were to ask me the worst part about this school I would say it is being a senior, being a senior is rather stressful and concerning but it is like that at all schools.

Some of the best parts is getting to interact with all diversities of students and staff, you get to have fun through school, you are able to be yourself, etc. Some of the worst parts is whenever I get bored in some of my classes, some students being obnoxious, and the amount of time between classes.
