It's a okay public school with some issues here and there, the food is basic school food, the bathrooms are either locked most of the time or missing doors, the teachers are a 50/50 when it comes to being good or bad, the current administration could do with some work regarding how students are delt with and cared for, the security is amazing with cop always on campus and metal detectors at the front door, the school does offer a decent bit of electives along with access to trade school.

The school only cares for the kids thats parents have money, or the sports kids. They will not help you if you aren't a popular kid. Took me 5 weeks to get my classes straight freshman year and they put me in theatre 3 times back to back and refused to let me change it.

My experience has been like no other. The teachers are so supportive and is very helpful. I really appreciate the Upward Bound program the is provide. It has helped plenty of student on their act scores and with college acceptance and expenses.
