Our school is the best school in the state for science and technology. We have drones and fly fishing. We do mapping for various facilities that the police use. We also do water ecology. The water we test gets used in court cases. We have very prestigious science classes. I wouldn't like to see much change. Peak academy is an honor to attend.
