I believe that this place it do their best for the students which i want believe that now. I been there for four years and to the end it started to improvement which it could help. Many students were not the best at the beginning in freshman year of my. I do believe they will have more improvements in the future as it turned into a stem school. I wish it the best for any students that are going there.

The academics are really good. Our math and science departments are very strong, preparing anyone for ap tests with many dual credits. Our sports are decent, basketball is good but football is bad. The rest of the sports are okay. Our music program is very good with the band placing 2nd at the state marching band competition last year. The administration is good and most of the teachers are great. Overall a really good school with many opportunities.
