Para ser honesta la experiencia que he tenido en la escuela ha sido muy buena, sin embargo, no la pudiese comparar con otras pues es a la única escuela a la que he asistido desde que vine a Estados Unidos, pero me gusta lo amable que son casi todos aquí, si debería resaltar puntos malos sería sin duda la comida o el hecho de que son varios los estudiantes que fuman, pero de ahí en más siempre que tú le des una oportunidad puede resultar muy buen lugar.

It was a fun Senior year there. I had just moved from another school and I fit in as soon as I got there. I made new friends fast.

I would like to see more students understand that college is a real pathway for them because often they felt stuck especially because many were low income and had to work continue working to help their families. Many of them felt it wasn't a real option, I think they need to see more alum from there to hear their real hard cold experiences, both the good and the bad.
