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 enjoyed my teachers every year. I think they did an excellent job. However, I felt as though administration was focused more on dress code than safety sometimes.

My best experience is learning and getting help from the amazing teachers that I had. The worst experience is with one teacher that I felt like didn't really help when I was struggling in her class. I would like there to be more touring available to help students with subjects they need and the school to be have reliable sources to help students

Wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. The kids in the school are homophobic and there's a good amount of bullying / intimidation that goes on. A lot of the kids are reckless / careless, more than normal compared to other schools. The school has been on a decline ever since I've graduated there.....
