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 like how they try the help students in classes but there are some teacher that were a little too strict. And beware, this school is extremely poor so you buy everything yourself. But overall it's fine.

Overall, it is a very unique experience. Most teachers have become very understanding and push back on homework. The main problem is the administration. They don't get a lot done when you raise your concerns. Nevertheless, the overall quality of education is very good. At times, it can be extremely stressful and it will definitely prepare you for college. You'll learn to hate some aspects of it and love other aspects of it.

A good school with the ultimate goal of college preparation. Some teachers are better are more flexible than others. Prepare for a large workload no matter what. Start strong in freshmen year because classes will be hard by junior year. Don't procrastinate if you want to get a full 8-hour sleep.
