Nice small school. Everybody gets a chance to participate if they want too in most activities. Teachers are very nice

Besides the below average education that I've been given at this school I have had some fond memories. The teaching staff might not be that great but the people such as students/cooks/librarians they all help to make this school a better place. Athletics for me is probably the best thing. We have a strong Woman's athletic program and we get a lot of support from the school and the community.

The teaching staff at my school is very limited there's only a few teachers that you can rely on. Most of our teachers are fresh out of college and are literally still a kid themselves. Most of the teachers can't answer basic questions that I feel should be known as a college graduate. Not only that but we aren't learning the basic's that we need to know in college and life.

The board, administration, and faculty continue to work hard to provide a quality educati...

One of the WORST schools I have ever put my children in. They demean the students. The Teachers do not allow their high school students to leave the lunch table unless they beg to go to the restroom. They are not allowed to talk during their lunch hour, now may I remind you these are High School stu...
