School is great in most terms. Not cleanliness, at the time of enrollment, they had 1 janitor. Administration is terrible, boys bathrooms don't have soap or paper towels, (you have to leave the rest room to go into the commons to use such things) lunch has assigned seats by alphabetical order regardless of grade, if a student is standing up during lunch for unapproved reasons they will be scolded. 1 of the only schools in district that is older than 15 years :P
