We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There is not much student involvement but the teams are usually pretty average. The students who do play are very committed but numbers are always low.

The food is not the best but meals change a lot. One meal can be great while another is terrible.

Its hard to get a-hold of people to help with graduation requirements but most of the teachers try to prepare you for your life out of high school.
