I love my school. I've met other students that became my best friends. There so many teachers that help support me daily and have helped me learn so many lessons. Although school is tough and some lessons are more challenging than others, I still get so many opportunities from school.

Looking back, the academics really prepped me for college and the school overall was great. However, the school administration has many issues most of which from Ms. Miller. She does not follow her own rules and dress codes kids (specifically girls and people of color). Her attitude is if you do not like the rules leave. She would repeatedly show up 20 minutes late to detention. She does not deserve to have a job at the school and frankly puts the school's honored name to shame.

Our family loves this school. Our child is extremely happy here. The schools caters to the needs of every child. Academics are top notch. The only thing I would like a change to is the policy of a few electives. In order to miss one semester of PE, the child has to be in marching band and foreign la...
