It was a very close-knit community; however, not enough is done to prepare students for college or allow them to further their education in advanced placement courses before college. College classes are provided, and that is nice, but I feel like more should be done to allow high-achieving students to do more before college.

I really like how all the teachers are willing to work with a student individually and help them succeed in the class. I also liked how different teachers taught some where hands on learning and some were researching on your own and it it's fun to do different things in different classes.

Needs to have more of an accepting environment regardless of race, sexual orientation, religious preference. Needs to hold students accountable for their actions and take them seriously.

This school taught me how to basic math, science, and English in two weeks. Something that the Middle School couldn't do in four years.

Top notch school! Great academic and athletic facilities, excellent staff, superb leadership from administration and supportive community. Friendly students also. Having been in well over 300 schools as a former college recruiter, I can say this is one of the best I have ever seen.
