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 fine arts program is pretty good in that there's a beginner music class and advanced music class and the art program teaches the essential basics in art.

Too much child bullying and fights. The school principal will not discuss with us. Child safety is obviously not a number 1 priority. And was told there is not enough security to manage all of the incidents that occur.

Wonderful school, with a great balance between Classwork and Homework. My kids feel like they are learning everyday with a meaningful workload. They english levels have improved a lot. Athletics can be improved than current levels. Also more emphasis clubs would be great.
