You get to have good one on one learning experiences sometimes but other times you may not.Overall the school could use some work with the learning environment.

This school has had such a great impact on me simply for the reason that my eldest sister went here and I used to watch her march in band; then my second eldest came and followed in her footsteps. So when I got to the school I did the same thing and the program had changed me for the better. The only thing I would change about the school is us having newer materials in class and a better looking school. We live in a poverty stricken area, so I just want the best for my class and the ones to come after.
