The school was racist. Not everyone but mainly the students and some teachers. It wasn't the best school I've been too. They say they get you ready for college but I wasn't even ready.

Very cool VOTEC and opportunities, however the roaches and random pat downs are a turn off. also the teachers either don't care or care way too much.

I love this school; it has its good and bad moments, but, overall, everyone wants you to do your best. They're all rooting for you, and they try to give you the best tools that they can.
