The school is organized and clean and has a nice variety of classes and electives to choose from. The teachers are kind and helpful, but the classrooms are not controlled very well as for noise and disruption. The assignments give a healthy challenge and most are willing to help if needed. They offer assistance when needed and listen well when a student speaks out.

My high school experience was fun and positive. I learned things I would have learned anywhere else and had teachers and staff that were there a long the way. As for involvement, it was a blank space for me since I was new to the people around me. I would like to see change in this when I am a part of a college I feel like I am meant to be there and encourage to participate with new friends.

The school is overall ok, we lack a substantial amount of teachers and funding so it lacks in some departments like having teachers for each class. In every year of school here I have had atleast either one teacher quit or we didnt have a teacher to begin with.
