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 have enjoyed going to high school here. The teachers are friendly and the students have been exposed to many careers and help to choose things within. I wish the administration were more involved, however.

Great experience, almost all of my teachers were great at what they did and I learned so much. I would definitely recommend going into the art and music programs. They may not have the best budgets but the time I spent in these programs were some of the most memorable.

The staff is great, as well as guidance. I think that the math department could use some improvements to be more aligned with what colleges expect.
