FYI i graduated in 2015. the food is mid ngl, and the worst day is when ONLY dominos pizza is served. everytime i left school hungry and i'm also allegric to lactose... there is a free lunch program. some of the teachers and admins truly enjoyed power trips. many boys restrooms did not have stall doors... the library was nice, and some teachers were really great at their craft. the school buses are okay but most drivers are miserable humans. standard public school experience.
