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.

When I was there, it had lots of bad and good to it. I mean the students didn't care that much about the work as they did other things and the teachers were either good or struggled with students. Their clubs and sports teams were quite diverse with track, tennis, soccer, wrestling and etc. I never liked school so I cant comment. It was an okay experience overall I guess.

There are caring teachers at this school. In addition, the administration and staff do their best to help the students. However, they're so narrow minded into what they need to improve the students' education without establishing a communication with students to hear what they have to say on the quality of their education and college readiness.
