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.

Most of the population is Asian in this school. The teachers are very passionate about the students and the staff is very friendly and eager to help. Teachers praise those who are excelling and encourage and help those who are behind. I can't say much about clubs or the food as I am not participating in any activities and I bring lunch from home. Overall this is a very good school with caring teachers, friendly staff, and nice students.

Excellent school with excellent teachers. If you have a choice, send your child to this school! They have high quality staff and respectable students. Also, if your child has a medical condition, there happens to be a hospital right next door! Fun Fact: The previous WA governor (Gary Locke) attended...
