There are quite a few different clubs us students are encouraged to join. There is speech (most popular), Spanish club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Linden club, Youth Council, Theatre, Pep band, Jazz band, Flags, Choir and a few more.

If you have an all-star athlete this school is for you. If you want your child to learn, it isn't. They need to stop hiring coaches and using them as teachers. The students suffer in these classes. The emphasis should be on education first and instead it is on the sports. Teachers do not reflect on...
