6/12/2023
The school is very home-like, everyone knows everyone. In some instances this is very nice, whereas in other instances this is the worst thing. Teachers get to know you but some are very judgemental. Small schools are nice if you like small schools.

It was a school that was a part of the Birmingham campus but then formed its own school when going charter was discussed. A small school with decent-sized classes. Went there during the shift period of the school so things may have changed.
5/3/2020
This is a small school which comes in handy when getting help from your teachers or any type of counselor that is available on campus.

I have been bullied and verbally harassed at this school dozens of times. There are also very few higher learning academics an...
