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.

Love it. All the teachers were great and were truly passionate about their jobs. You would rarely find any "bad" or "disruptive" students because everyone here was so nice. They try to incorporate values that will help greatly later in life, and they usually succeed. I loved my time here. The only downsides of going here are the extracurriculars, which were not the best. Otherwise, I would strongly recommend this school.
