I absolutely hated this school. Worst years of my life bru. It smelled like butt and I hated 90% of the teacher, there was like no bathrooms and the ones we did have the lock were always broken. DO NOT GO HERE unless you want to hate your life and the food looked mutated like I would rather eat my OLD thanksgiving leftovers then the food.

Its also a small school and its kinda boring to be in for 7 hours each day. We also only have one semester of PE/Health.

There is an isolating social environment in the school, and little is done until physical confrontation ensues.

I was part of the first graducating class and was very sad to leave it. The teachers leave am impression on their students that has yet to go away even after seven years. The classrooms are a little more relaxed than the norm but it made learning more fun, making the students actually want to learn...
