This school offered a variety of after school activities as well as Ap courses with a number of passionate teachers that aided in the learning process for the students.I myself took a couple of Ap courses.This includes Ap History,Physics II and government and politics.

The schools makes it a priority for students to feel welcome and able to make the right choices that will benefit them during their high school journey. Prioritizing the students, they offer a ton of experience building studies in almost any pathway.

This is a school that does not work towards the betterment of students. Most teachers are not there because they care about helping students, they're there for the large salary. As an alum, I could see that if a student was not "smart" they wouldn't even bother with them. My brother was not the brig...
