Its pretty average here. Its a small town so what can you really expect. Some times its good and others is sub par. Most of the teachers are great people. Most of the clubs are good, especially the volunteer clubs so i recommend them.

Teachers take days and even weeks to respond to parents email. They invest too much in athletics(even though their program is terrible and no student gets scholarships) faculty literally treats it as a 9-5 job with no interest in truly teaching students. Statistically one of the worst in the state....

If your not part of the football program your needs are secondary. This is a school where the principal is the football coach!!?? Can someone tell me there isn't a conflict of interest here.
