The greatest part was the teachers interaction with other students and teaching the resources in detail and helping the students that are struggling and share their thoughts. The thrash apart of that some of the teachers in the school have trouble speaking english with their pronouncing and discrimination towards others including the Native Americans.

I liked the variety of classes they offered and the support that came from the teachers. I did not like the lack of freedom for the very small things like open campus and the very dull building that didn't make me happy to be at school at all. The school was very focused on sports and favorites the athletic students more than the academic students. The administrative staff are not very involved with the students and show very little concern for them until the state or the parents are involved. They are very oblivious to events that take place at school and only take action when their reputation is at stake.

Personal Ambition ALWAYS trumps professional practices. I think it has to do with the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.
