I excelled in all of my classes and rarely had issues with staff and other students. However, I'd like to see the school enhance its appearance. Te buildings are older and need improvement.

My Experience was very good. All my teachers wanted the best for me and my fellow peers. If there was a problem a teacher would be there to help you with it. The sports at the school was great, all the coaches would help to be ready off and on the field or court. College readiness is a very big thing at my school.

We don't have a whole lot of after school activities. We have football, band, JROTC Drill team, soccer, basketball, and track. There not a whole lot to offer kids here. We need more time thing to get involved with besides sports.
