I liked that it was a smaller school which meant there was more one on one interaction between teachers and students. I didn't like the fact that the school didn't offer calculous or that it didn't offer college level science courses.

The athletic program is pretty great. Everyone is real supportive, and most of the students are involved in it.

There is a lot of peer pressure in this school. The only way to be accepted and popular is to go to parties and drink alcohol. Nobody in the school stands up for what is right; the majority of students are obnoxious, perverted, or drunk, while the rest stay silent.
