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 would say it's underrated for high schools in the area since it has high quality food and facilities. The teachers there are pretty memorable and you have access to a bunch of quality learning materials without having to purchase them (especially in the tech section of the school).

I would say it was a pretty average school, it wasn't exceptional in any areas but it also wasn't horrible in any areas really. The thing that I would say is needed the most is a better school culture and promoting pushing yourself to test your academic skills, seeing as though most people I knew basically flew through it without even taking a single honors or AP class. I myself took 6 AP classes so I was by far an major outlier. But I feel like this is a criticism that you could make about most high schools to be fare. Additionally, in my two years of being there I found that it was hard to find 'good' teachers, which played a fare part in what classes I took in those last two years.

BUT...be willing to deal with a lot of small-town politics. Teachers are generally average - some are outstanding; wish there were more...
