The best part is probaby how close the community is, but that can sometimes double as the worst part as well. It's really just an average small town school with more involvement in sports rather than anything else like fine arts. I do wish students were more involved with the fine arts side, but that's their choice. Overall a decent school. It could be better but our funding is rough. The staff is great for the most part. I have no major complaints, honestly.

School spirit is great. The school is successful in sports and community-based. My best experiences are making the friends I have here. My worst experience would be classes where students misbehaved.
