The staff at this school overall cares so much about their students and I have always felt very seen and heard by the staff. Overall, the students lift each other up and band together when bad things happen. I would love to see more relationships between upperclassmen and underclassmen. I think it is so important to make the underclassmen feel seen and heard.

i have been attending this school since third grade. i have always felt safe in this school and i know that i can go and talk to anyone when something is wrong. i love this school because its in a small town. i really like this because then we can get to know every student a little better than we would if we were a bigger school.
