My experience was so good when Mr.Lipp was principal but unfortunately he was placed at another school resulting in another principal. The classes are very intricate and they offer an array of classes like Spanish mandarin, Phycology, Eco physiology etc. It's a very good school but it needs more diversity and more school culture.

The specialized engineering classes offered have been a great fit for my student. She has been able to take classes and experience topics that would not have been available to her at our hometown high school. The classes she has taken have prepared her well and are putting her in a positive position to apply to colleges for engineering programs.
