The school is pretty okay. There are some amazing teachers, but that gets negated by the fact that there are also some terrible teachers.
3.0 Senior

The school is very strict on their uniform policy as well as their tardy and absence policies, they only offer two Ap courses (AP Spanish and AP Art).
