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.

My overall experience was good. Although it has a bad reputation the teachers are nice. However, the lunch food is not good so there could be improvements.Along with that more funding can be had to the sports programs where majority of funding goes to the football team which isn't that good.

The overall experience for my son was great. The school is working on improving it's rating and has achieved that during my son's 4 years. The teachers and guidance counselors are super. Downfall- sports programs are poorly coached in general.
