Even though I didn't have the best experiences, it's a great school that just needs people to take opportunities themselves to enjoy it.
2/3/2020
This school produces graduates with high academic ability, but those graduates aren't necessarily the nicest people. Most students that go to this school are from rich white families that have had most things handed to them. That is not to say that there isn't good kids here, but a majority of kids are very materialistic and selfish. On a different subject, the teaching is pretty good, and class size is on average 29-31
