I feel like the school mainly focus on sports. They don't care if you're smart or even if you are involved. Many of the teachers have favorites and it is to the point where if they don't like you they refuse to help or talk to you. Anyways also not very many opportunities.

I am currently attending this school and all that matters is sports and ffa if you aren't in any of those activities, they don't really care. Academics is suppose to be #1 and it's not. I hate this school it's all drama and heartache. I'm so very glad I'm a senior now.
