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.

The school is one of the most horrible schools here in the city of Pittsburgh. Comparing to the other school it does not have much with clubs or many electives and forces students to apply themselves when teachers do not.

The school is not like it used to be. The teachers are young and inexperienced. The administrators have no patience or creativity in stopping the bad behavior of the majority of the students. It's just really sad to see a school that was once great turn out this way.
