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.

Racist people. Got called slurs like 15 times. Guidance counselors are all white. People are rude and under educated. The teachers are okay I guess the teaching is bad. I feel extremely stressed and they don't help. They just make it worse. As much as it's reputation is amazing, I don't recommend it for a child of color or any minority honestly. It sucks that me and my friends had to experience life issues only some face once or not at all at such a young age.
