The environment is friendly and kids get along but when there is an issue teacher do not step in. There is no AC in majority of the school and as of right now the whole high school is under construction. The board was unprepared on the extreme change of habit that would have to come to not only the students but the staff of the building as well. Most teachers are relatively inclusive and do their best to make everyone feel at home but at times do lack the proper authority when a student does act out of line.

Administration is discriminative towards students and does not follow nor enforce policies in regards to bullying .

Its not a bad school. Teachers are very good and considerate, it's just that there is a lot of unlying issues like racism, homophobia, etc, that no one wants to really handle. No one wants to be responsible for handling things because it can cost them their job. Otherwise, the academics are pretty good, and the teachers and students for the most part are exceptional.

The administration is not helpful. I do not know why I even bother going to them with an issue because I never get anywhere. It is very disappointing.
