We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I would love to see the diversity among students shine in a more broad way, giving every student the opportunity to shine in a way they should and are more than capable of doing. I would also like to see the one on one relationships with students and families improve in a professional manner, while also seeing the kids being cared for the way we deserve.

I have had a great experience in high school. The help was there if I needed it and we have been given resources for college prep. There is a lot we do not understand about the college process but they are meeting with us and helping us get prepared.

I attended school here all four years of high school. In my freshman-junior years, little was said about college readiness but when the new administration came in this, all changed. The guidance counselors and administration are very helpful in advising.
