It wasn't a terrible school, I had good and bad times. My best part is being a part of the Women's Soccer team for all 4 years of my HS experience as well as the CTE courses they provide. My worst time was when I couldn't find any resources to help me apply to any colleges or no resources to apply for scholarships, sometimes it felt like the school wasn't setting us up for success in our future.

The administration in this school is just quite awful. They don’t have a clue of what’s going on, I have tried to register my son here 3 days in a row now and they still have approximately more than 50 students out of their class and still attempting to get schedules. Then to top it off I’m at the f...
