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.

School is more worried about them earning money than a child's education. Some teachers actually care and are good others not so much

The worst part is I'm called slurs very often. The good part is, the administrators will take immediate action and find solutions.

I like how all of the teachers at this school care about the students and want to help them succeed. Our fine arts program is very strong. However, I don't like how sports are emphasized so hard and you're only selected to be on the teams if you are favorited. The bullying problem also needs to be improved on, bullying tends to be ignored at this school.
