I would give this place a zero in every category if I could, all the teachers are terrible and classes are pointless. Awful student life and an ugly campus, along with far too strict rules and unfair punishments contribute to a generally unhappy student population.

Overall I had a great experience during my high school. Since we started during Covid I feel like a lost first 2 years of actually going to school since all was mostly done online

Horrible place. Major bullying and racism problem wherever you go. The school however couldn't seem to care less about anything though. Building looks and feels like a jail cell as it's full of privileged white kids. Do not send your son here.
