I enjoyed the environment that the school created, especially at the football games. Many of my teachers did a good job explaining the concepts of the class and making it interesting for learning. However, I had a few teacher that were not capable or qualified to teach the subject that we were supposed to be learning. I thought the range of classes was good, and there were many options available depending on the course of actions you decided was best for you.
