My overall experience was pretty good, the teachers have good relationships with students for it being a fairly big school. I would like to see the math program improve because that was one of the main subjects most people study with.

I do track and field, cross country, and orchestra there and just having all of those in one place is fantastic and a really good opportunity to join clubs or even join a class that you normally wouldn't join. Everything there is really solid and they can provide everything needed but sometimes with a small fee.

It's a great high school for people who care about their futures. There are many teachers that genuinely care about you and your future, and plenty of opportunities to succeed. The music department is one the greatest in the county with lots of resources put into band, choir, and orchestra.

This school rocks! as a junior ive seen the school change alot over the years, and i cant say every change has been a positive one but every change has had a root cause of the younger students being highly disrespectful and idiotic. Id recomend this school to anyone whos focus is academics and sport...
