The best part of my experience is that our school is changing from normal. Being in a normal school is not fun. So far, we are changing the norm and having so much fun this school

This school is very disorganized and poor management of the staff. My experience has been horrible so far. There are no activities for the students to participate in, and if there are, it always seems to get shut off

I liked the FFA. I loved the flag line and the spirit of our team. We are allowed to participate in religious holiday and to have candlelight activities for our members that have passed on.

I went to this fine institution for 32 years. That may seem like a long time but I just kept failing my classes. Finally with the help of the outstanding staff and my loving peers I successfully made it through Highschool with at 0.01 gpa. Would definitely go again if I could!!!
