Overall experience was I only went there because I'm from out of state and unfortunately when you move to Texas from other states your far behind and at risk to be held back so this school helped me recover credits to graduate the same year I was supposed to but this school is easy take an exam pass the class

Go at your pace school not just for students falling behind but also for students on a faster track you can graduate earlier and still receive a high school diploma and go to college. I graduated at 16 and now attend a university!
