The facilities and programs at this school are great and relatively new but the overall mood and school spirit here is incredibly low.

For the most part I like myself school but there is a sense of laziness with the students. Everyone is rude and never respects the teachers. They always vandalize property and smoke in the bathroom. Not many people show up to class, so the classes are getting easier and easier to pass I feel like I just have to show up and I will get a C at least. I do love most of the teachers, especially the supportive ones that have helped me with college essays, assignments and with a club I am in. In all honesty, I think my school has many, many resources for tutoring, clubs, mental health, etc. But no one seems to take advantage of it like they should. I wish I could see the student's attitudes change. I don't think a lot of them understand how privileged they are to even be able to go to school, let alone get free breakfast and lunch, have free mental health resources, computers, tutoring, and overall education.
