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.

Decent school but students aren't too protected. Safety has to be improved for all students and teachers need to interact more with them. The school looks like a jail cell from the outside and students aren't allowed carry a backpack around the school, so they are forced to carry around a heavy binder all day at school.

I didn't have a bad two years at Varsity. The teachers and staff definitely work to help you ace tests, such as the EOC and FSA. If anything a problem would be students, some were very rude towards one another, but when you make a good circle of friends it doesn't really matter. One thing they really need to work on though, is the food. It was pretty bad for example some of the burgers wouldn't be cooked all the way along with the dough in the pizzas. And some fruits would be left out instead of packaged so insects would rest on them and that's really it.

That school is so bad. You guys made my brother cry. There are Steelers at that school you guys are so lame and broke. You let the children disrespect you guys. He comes crying home every single day. The children are literally stealing Sprayground tags.

I mean, it was okay. This year, we seem to be doing better. However, if you want good food (or a lot of fun clubs) this school is not for you.
