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.

Good comfortable school, little to no fights went on at this school. The school is small in comparative to other high schools. They are d5-d7 in sports and the whole school is divided into different academy's so, if you are interested then do your research about what academy fits you the best.
