Standard High School. Not anything of interest has basic science, math, art, ect classes. The teachers here are great, the majority of them really enjoy their job. The classes are easy. You should think of an honors class as a regular class. The AP classes are really good. All of the AP teachers absolutely know their stuff. If you can take the work load I highly recommend them.

I thought is was a good experience although some of the teachers were extremely bias to certain students which made work very hard. Sports are fun and have great school spirit.

We had to put our kids in private school. Kids run the school and administrators and teachers are afraid to discipline kids. There is nothing for kids to do in this town so kids just drink and get high. Plenty of kids come to school high. Teachers give everyone good grades. Students and teachers are...

Absolute joke of a school. Teachers are disconnected from there students, especially in the math department. Communication is atrocious and not reliable. The administration sucks. Overall this school is terrible if you have even the slightest interest in a trade.
