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.

Been attending the school for the past 4 years, I'm currently a senior and the involvement the school has with outside and inside activities is beyond, I'm in the dance pathway and the school allows us to create our shows not only for us but for the school.
