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.

I enjoy the teachers and all of the athletics they involve. Especially with clubs I like to do at least three.

I've been at this school for quite some time now and it's not bad. Most staff are nice and actually want to teach you things instead of just giving out paper work. I also feel very safe with the new safety protocols like having everyone scan their ID everytime them come in, hall monitors everywhere, and sometimes having a dog on campus.
