The school administration and teachers made a great effort to make students' experiences positive, both academically and socially. There were many different classes, programs, clubs, etc. ensuring that students can find what suits their interests the most.

1.0 Alum

4/16/2023

this school is by the worst ever and the students like to bully other people but the teachers won't do anything about it

4.0 Senior

2/2/2023

Over all as a school it's a god place to learn. Lots of teachers are so sweet and some are so nice to others. I created so many relationships with people. It has its faults with the way it solves things but it's a good place.
