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.

The teachers are useful when you ask them for help. Some of the students are mean to each other, but most are nice. The teachers are caring and always willing to support and help you. If you are going through a difficult time, you could talk to a teacher for help. You can trust most of the teachers with personal issues. I grew up at this school and I have loved it. I moved away a few times, but always came back. I would like the backpack rule to change. I would want people to be able to take their backpacks to class, so they have to possibly be late to class just because they have to go to their locker.

Because certain people didn't like the marching band instructor's "progressive" music (The Beatles!!), they closed their band program in 2011. If you want a school full of nothing but "AG" classes - t...

This school has need in every area. Difficulties begin with the school board itself. Members have personal agendas for joining. Mostly, it ensures their family members will be hired and/or their children will receive special treatment in academics and athletic programs. Another parent stated that th...
