Most teachers care about their students grade and how they teach but others could care less. Besides that the school is good, most funding goes towards sports however.

The teachers expect a lot out of you, but most of the time are willing to help. The music department, especially is excellent. The school is overall a very pleasant experience.

I enjoy the high school's atmosphere. The school provides various clubs and sports for students to be involved in. However, there are not many clubs and activities that specialize in the healthcare field, for students who are interested in those specific careers.
