We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Well, there was a lot of stuff happening in that school drama-wise. However, overall, I had a wonderful year there and I learned a lot of stuff along the way. This school has given me so much insight into my future that I'm pretty much looking forward to attending my Senior year there next year. There's pretty much nothing I can say that needs to be changed however I would really like to see some change in the lunch lines, though. lol!!! ~ Vetarrah Johnson / angelwingz407@gmail.com

I like that the teachers try their hardest to make a difference in the students lives. Also the teachers build relationships with students which makes everyone comfortable. I would like to see more fun activities and a lot more privileges.
