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 do not appreciate the biased judgements from administrations towards students. I think all should be given equal oppurtunity.

Awful school! Absolutely no APs and they have been lying about IBs for a long time! They don’t even have Chromebooks for the students yet they have $35 million to waste on a new stadium!!! Not to even mention the awfully built school with unconnected building. Overall avoid this school for the sake...

School needs to shut down. Too many COVID cases and they are still running the school, which is making more students sick.
