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.

I admire the involvement the faculty and staff have in students' academics and their lives in general. However, the cafeteria prices are inconsistent, and my friends always complain that the amounts in their accounts don't match what they had previously put in and should have after purchasing items.

I really enjoyed Marching band, concert band and all of the musicals that I was involved in. The teachers really care about you and always give you great opportunities.

This school is awful and no one should go here. The teachers and higher up are the worst people and dont know how to run a school. False accusations and horrible treatment to students.
