Academics are good, teachers are awesome, and they prepare you well for testing. However, certain combinations of classes is EXTREMELY stressful and the work load is insane.

The school campus resembles a college campus... it's beautiful, but it might also be because it was recently renovated. The campus is fairly clean, and the classrooms are average-sized. The bathrooms are average, but I blame it on the students.

There wasn't much of a variety of extracurricular opportunities, but it might've also depended on what type of club or organization you joined. ASB attempted to create 'fun' in-school activities, but I'm sure many of the students would agree that they boring.
