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.

If I could do it over again I would definitely choose to go to my school. everyone is really nice and there are very few people who don't take care in our school events or don't get involved or don't accept others for who they are. Our school is very involved in every event and acknowledges all achievements no matter how small and is constantly showing new ways to take part in our student life and make your high school experience the best in every way possible.

Great school because the teachers give so much to the kids. Most kids are Spanish speaking and many teachers are too. The entire staff works very hard to help each student, my kids love their teacher!
