The students there have no respect for the school or others who are there to truly just graduate. Bathrooms are constantly being destroyed and we are now being treated like we are in middle school because we aren't allowed to have backpacks thanks to the kids that like to Juul. They say they want to make attendance better and then they make us not want to be there.

The school was very friendly. There was a lot of different classes. The sports teams were very good and so was the coaches. I played all 4 years on both the basketball and football varsity team and it was very fun.

I like homecoming, pep rally, spirit week, the day of music, etc. Activities are great. I would cahnge the lunches, very few options, flavorless, not much of a survey. Would like to see more tutoring available like a room open any period that students can go to.
