The worst part about my experience is that the school is very unorganized . Almost everyday something is going on and the teacher and administrators does not know what's going on because no one is communicating with one another . Also the school is not update because of the county so the bathrooms are nasty , classroom are too plus they are also no update so the roof half falling apart . Some teacher are good so are not just have to find your way around but they have a lot of sports and activities.The overall score of the school I would give if a (3).
