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.

Never ever go here. The building structure is terrible. Most of the teachers suck. This is the school that all the kids that get expelled from other schools go to. They set off stink or smoke bomb in the bathrooms and there are always fights.

My experience at this school has been the worst possible. There is tons of bullying going on that the teachers see, but the teachers do nothing to stop it or punish the other students for it. This school is quite large and easy to navigate your way around. I wouldn't recommend this school to anybody even if it is your home school because of the racism and cruelty of the students. Teachers don't usually care and they hardly know the material they are trying to teach. I would never go to this school again.

The condition of the school building is very bad and practically falling apart. There is old school air conditioning and heating. Doors are old and don't lock from the inside. Tutoring is only available to those who are preparing to take a state test and only for those who don't do good in class.

Awful school, bullying, violence and drug use. Avoid at all cost. The school sticks up for the bullies and punishes the kids who are defending themselves.
