It's fine. Nothing really special. Doesn't suck. They have great chicken patties ngl. Their clubs have bad funding. Their music program is actually really good so shoutout to the choir and band teacher.

This school is TRASHY. They don't care about anybody's feelings or opinions. I'm a student and I don't even wan't to go to school anymore. I don't feel safe. DO NOT, consider this school as a choice for your children.

Both my son and daughter attended this school. My kids both were in sports and clubs. My daughter is going to be a Freshman at Oswego East and is prepared and excited. The teachers are so supportive and I thank you for the great job you did for my family.
