I liked the way that most teachers actually care about the well-being of their students. Some really great examples of this are Senora Katherine Youngman, Karleen Hansen, Stacy Hansen, Eric Oja, Shannon O'Rourke-Hudson, and Kim Jones. I think that the facilities could be better maintained, I think that the food is sub-par, I believe that student academia could be treated more seriously.

I would want more diverse clubs and study opportunities, but otherwise it is a good school. The teachers are experienced and are willing to work with their students so they can better understand the subject matter.

There was a lot of favoritism shown here. Sports took priority over all else. Most teachers were great, they're super awesome people. But the administration didn't give two cares about anyone other than their winning sports team or those taking leadership class. I felt so under appreciated and uncared for and it was honestly a toxic environment.
