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.

It has potential to be a very strong school community but lacks a good and healthy school culture. Teachers are pretty amazing, but some students aren't as excited or engaged with school.

It's an ok school but not the best there is but it has a nice overall atmosphere. The sports is good besides the football team but most of the teachers are determined to get us through school and help us succeed.
