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.

Being an arts school it's amazing to see how hard the students work to achieve more experience & knowledge in so many disciplines many will not get to even see until high school. The maturity is beyond their years. Staff work to push the students to reach higher then they think they can & work with eachother & the parents to make sure the schools a safe learning facility.

Two stars for having good Dance and also Band instructors. Home room is a waste of students time. Technology teachers (ie. Video production, 3D printing are under-qualified). Magnet Students with IEPs delegated to self-contained “functional classes” isolated from grade-level instruction.
