Students are stuck up and miserable, Parents are unwilling to communicate or accept that their students are sub par, Teachers are trying but not hard. Worst school experience I have had in my 6 different schools.

I really like the vibes there and I've been there since 6th grade and I feel like it has really prepared me for life. The teachers actually care about you as a person.
