We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Most of the extracurricular opportunities are sports at our school. They are together practicing just about everyday after school. Clubs meet most of the time either before or during free time at school, and if they are after school it is for a dinner or something. I think FBLA is the most popular option at our school. For most people at my school though it is football or basketball.

The school is a pretty safe place. The nurse is always there when you need her. Bullying isn't a big problem either, or personal safety.
