It is a excellent small town school that truly helps you get college ready. The few things is there is not really much help in helping you apply for scholarships. Also believe that could improve it is emphasis in other sports other than football.

It feels like a family here. Since it is a smaller school, everyone knows everyone. So any people come to every sports or fine arts event. When I first moved here the first thing everyone told us to go to was the Electric Gold choir concert. Everyone in this entire community is so supportive.
