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.

Overall not a bad school, most teachers are great, however, some are not so great. We're good in sports, and have fun school activities and pep rallies.

It's an okay high school if you don't have any other options staff is laid back and don't care. The school board is not the best.Counselors do not care about your mental health and basically try to blame you. The environment and the kids are not friendly.
