I'm having a good time at this school. Most teachers are amazing, it feels safe, and welcoming. I would like to see CI change to the semester system as currently, the quarter system makes us, students more difficult to remember subjects. For example, if you have math in Q1, you won't have it until Q3 which is a big gap of 3-4 months. It's worse when you're preparing for state testing or other exams.

this school may not have the highest test scores, the best athletics, or the best reputation, but what it does have is spirit. I believe that this is the key to success.
