My four years of high school were an absolute roller coaster. Throughout the four years, the schedule was never consistent. The education was pretty good but the students enrolled in the school were a mess. The faculty have been rude to students when under pressure. The teachers were treated not the nicest or being directed to do outrageous things that cut into the time of the lesson. There is work being done but who knows when the school will be back on its feet.

The teachers are great and care about the students. I believe the Principal, however, cares only about money. She charges the student a dollar for each temporary id (4 inch piece of paper and does not let the parents know until graduation the amount of money it costs. One poor student had to pay 100...
