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 enjoyed my experience in school so far because I've made friends that will last a lifetime. I wouldn't choose this school again because I feel as if I won't remember the majority of the things I have learned over the years because all that mattered to the school was the grades I was receiving, not if I was actually remembering the information.
