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.

The school is a nice place to go for high school. Most of the teachers teach well and accommodate all kinds of students. Many of the buildings are being updated and are constantly being renovated. The school culture is interesting and while the school has a decent amount of students to it, it still feels like a community.
