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.

It was a fine school for me but safety and school fights got worse in the past years. Need to do better to prepare for college.

High school is high school at the end of the day. However, there is little college preparedness unless you are in a college prep class like Avid. We have few resources here and the community does not get along well. The teachers are pretty good and the classes are ok. The diversity is excellent here and have people from many walks of life which is great.

Cooper is a great program lead by great staff. Most students at Cooper like the school even though cooper is not the best school I would recommend going there to get a great attention from teachers and coaches. Teachers care about your success and help you stay on top of your task. The IBMYP program...
