This school has great teachers and students! Unfortunately the school once had a reputation but it has grown tremendously. They provide many resources to students and a sense of community.

I have never had such a negative experience with students. It's disgusting and shameful an is not a place dedicated to learning. It's simply a mass baby sitting operation.
