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.

For me some of the best parts about going to this school was that it was so flexible not strict like other schools in the area but at times that was a bad thing and I wanted to have some type of structure.

My daughter attends this school. She has great relationships with the teachers and yes the students are loud because it is a non selective school. Everyone has a chance but the students MUST take advantage of the opportunity.
