The best parts about this school is meeting friends and hanging out and communicating with more people and learning things that will actually help me in the future the bad parts are when grades drop and when some teachers aren't willing to help

I feel as though it is an under-funded school with a staff that's trying its best. I am proud to be a greyhound.
