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.

Its a very small school so everyone knows eachother and you do get to know the teachers pretty quickly. The work is fairly easy and the homework is as well. The overall management is unorganized and teachers are not treated well by the head administrators.

What I like about the school is that most of the people here know each other and we help each other no matter what grades we are in. Everyone is really nice, kind, and helpful, and the teachers do a really good job of helping out with school work or any other problems.
