It has a lot of favoritism and if you have a name you get in to certain perks and stuff. Everyone expects so much out of you at such a young age. Teachers are very good. Sports are horrible and it all depends on favoritsism. Overall, the school is not that good but academics are good
4.0 Junior

Easy to get involved in a lot. There are some bad teachers that ruin the good experience of high school. The academics are good in certain areas, but do need improvements in areas. The community and environment are a good area to be in.

I liked some of the teachers and how safe I felt. I didn't like that teachers/coaches favorites always got what they wanted.
