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.

It was much better when my brother attended it. At this point, everything is politically correct and nothing gets done. Next step, school board.

Over 8 yrs. at this school. On surface, seems like a nice school, however, most initiatives and programs are superficial in nature and resume building-- not necessarily beneficial to students.
