I liked the teachers and the opportunity for college express and dual enrollment. The staff has always been there when someone needed to talk and the majority of teachers are always willing to help you with your struggles in class. The principle was nice and treated everyone with respect.

Most of the teachers care about the students and their success. It's a very close and fun school. Students get recognition for their achievements and are all treated equal.

This school is the worst high school I have ever seen. They teachers are rude and lazy. They do not challenge you so it is very hard to be successful in collage. Bulling is very bad here and the teachers do nothing about it. If your transferring to a new school do NOT go here.
