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.

There are so many clubs and ports to get involved in at this school. From volleyball and golf, to FBLA and Forensics Club, they have lots to offer at this school. All students are encouraged to participate and get involved with the school in some way. Just about every single person at this school is involved in some kind of extra curricular activity.

This school is a good school, and is improving every year. The best thing about this school is the size. This school is so small the teachers have more time to slow down and have a little more one on one with the struggling students. My favorite thing about this school is the understanding all the staff has. If a student is having a hard time with school, or even at home, they will go above and beyond to help and ensure that their students succeed.

The teachers at this school, overall, are some of the nicest people one will ever meet. Most of them care for the students and hep them the best that they can if they are struggling. Some of them, however, are too smart for their own good. They know the material, but they have a hard time teaching the student to where they can understand and perform at their greatest ability. It is a challenge, but I like challenges. They have made me study harder than ever and have prepared me for college to the best of their abilities.

This school has not been effective for me. The school discriminates you because of your popularity and your mistakes that you have made. Take for example I wore a pair of ripped jeans one day to school. They had a medium sized hole on the right buttock. The resource officer told me that my parents n...
