This is a very good school for someone who had never attended a public school before. It is the perfect size. Teachers know who you are by name and will do anything to have get a good grade. The teachers are what make this school as good as it is.

The dress code is not followed because the vice principals daughters attend the high school and no one wants to yell at the bosses daughter or their friends. We are such a small school that there isnt much bullying that happens here although we have lost one student to suicde in the past 6 months. After missing four days of school a letter is sent in the mail saying that if you miss any more you will be fined then taken to the magistrate.
