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.

If you are a good student, you'll pass their classes easily and if your not a good student, they will take the time to help you with whatever you need help with. They have various clubs including art, computer aided design, workshop, and band. They have a very nice sports program.
