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.

The school has a good community but way too many problems. Students are allowed to smoke weed in school and then pollute the classrooms with smells. The food is terrible but they wont let us eat across the street. Learning is not good as we are barely prepared for college. Its just not the best school if you are really serious about your future
