I have had two children attend this school. After being honor roll students in elementary school they both barely passed. Their behavior changed dramatically, and I feel because a lot of the kids are bullies and that changes the way other children act.

I love this school as a student
7/23/2024
The school is a great place. My child transferred in from another district and felt comfortable in the school. I was initially reluctant, but my feelings changed once my child was at the school.

I do not recommend this school to anyone who gets their feelings hurt easily. the majority of the students at this school talk about sexual topics, say profanity extremely often, and the teachers here are no better. Sure there are some teachers here that are pure gold and the staff are better behave...

Good School...I appreciate their positive affirmation during this overwhelming time and challenges that 2020 has impacted with virtual zooming!
