While I cannot say it was amazing, I can say that it set me on the right path. This school, despite the odd scenarios I went through, was pretty alright. I liked the teachers, the food was alright, and I definitely made some lasting friends.

mr manoogian is a mean teacher and i advise that that you keep your kids away from this place. Arizona has enough trouble already with education...being the fourth worst state in education in the country. and this school makes it 2 times worse. mr manoogian hits us with yard sticks and makes all of the females very uncomfortable. he even tries to get really close to every kid and touch them. and last year he farted in my face
