There is a lot of great teachers that actually care about the students and curriculum. Couple of fights every year but no one ever actually gets hurt, gets stopped right away so pretty safe. The arts programs are really fun and sports teams/games are awesome to go to lots of team spirit.

The best parts are the staff, they are very kind, the worst is the students, they are not bad but some of them are rude

Overall, attending this high school was pretty good. A majority of the teachers I have had are caring and dedicated to their job. The administration does their best to better the school and make it a fun place to be. There are great clubs, sports, and specialties (like NVAA, JROTC, etc). The small student population allowed me to feel like I knew everyone.
