I have been studying at this school for two years now and, in principle, I like everything except the food, which is not particularly tasty. To be honest, most of it is Mexican food, a lot of tomatoes, beans and all sorts of things mixed together. The teachers and kids are great, as is the curriculum.

This high school offers so much help on the college application, college research, and develop the potential major choice. Also, for a new immigrant, the school helps a lot in improving your English as long as you do your work and pay some attention in class.

I like how assorted my school is there is understudies from numerous countries. I might want to see some american children students in this school. I have great experience on this school which I nearly been going to for a while so I have picked up my English a considerable measure better since I begin heading off to this school. This school is better than average for who originated from other countries and there age adequate to go secondary school yet old for middle school I prefer them to go this school. Because this school is good for language learners.
