My experience with this school is a pretty good yet neutral. It is much better than Aberdeen High School. It has more classes and programs available however I have heard of other schools that have better stuff. The agriculture section has quite a bit so students can get into that. The art department has several lessons and the teacher submits our pieces to some competitions so that is fun. The theater program however is a bit lackluster as there is a lack of variety with actors for each play. They're always the same ones. The math teachers are pretty good. And there are little clubs but the ones that are there are fun.
