It is a great school for academics and gets you ready for college. There is always a lot of assistance on how to do everything related to college like applying, Transcripts and such.

I would stay that students have everything they need to succeed, but they don't have very good school spirit. I would prefer for their to be less restrictive rules regarding expression and identity (a district wide issue).
