I feel like my school is a very good school resources wise. They do their best to help us get ready for our future. The best part of my experience is the friends I met. The worse part is how people don't use the school's resources. I would like to see people actually care about school.

My child went to Horizon for Freshman year but was bussed to PV for electives.

I would highly recommend PV over Horizon. The...
