My best experience is probably when i went to regionals for cross country and track. Most likely my favorite experience ever because i never knew i could do that and take my team with me. Now my worst experience is probably losing my grandma i was just a 7th grader who had no idea that her grandma was gone until she called her uncle saying she passed my heart dropped to my stomach and once i got home i couldn't accept it and as i was walking to my room i saw my little brother crying and that broke me into pieces that was the worst experience ever.

I love that we have an EMT class! I also love our options for college classes. I don't like that a lot of our regular teachers are actually not very good teachers... there's a reason the our students have such bad test scores when teachers aren't there to smug the numbers...

This is a highly recommended school with so many teachers that can help you most when you need it. I was not expecting this school to be as good when I first started but it changed my mind and improved my academic scores dramatically and without this school's help, I would have been in a lot of trouble
