I enjoyed taking the dual enrollment classes and most of the teachers I had were helpful, but it was a somewhat unsafe school and many of the students really don't care about learning.

I would love if the school focused on their students who want to graduate and go to college rather than behavior issues around the school.
4.0 Junior

The support I get from the counselors is good since they provide lots of opportunities that can help me and other students for college.

This school is above average without a doubt. The teachers are awesome by being encouraging and knowledgable in their respective subjects. There are AP courses and plenty of extracurricular activities offered. The only thing missing when I attended were the academic and athletic freaks that you see...
