We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall, my high school is a great place to be, academically and socially. There, it's hard to not make friends as long as you can make conversations, and the teachers are extremely helpful. The resources they have are great and are at our disposal

I'm not sure where to start, there are so many things this school needs improvement on. I'll just start with some of the teachers: They're sooo slow on updating the students grades, do'nt respond when we (parents) email them. Have attitudes when we finally get to speak with them.
