The schools offerings in AP and ACA/IB are incredibly robust. The diversity at the school is slightly lacking, however we have very few incidents concerning it. Although the ones we have had were large and dealt with promptly. Overall a great school to attend.

Overall, it is good. Teachers are amazing and approachable. I really feel like I've learned a lot from most of my teachers I've had. My teachers have been encouraging as well as my counselor who has helped guide me throughout my four years, especially when I have had adversities to overcome.

My experience as a bi black student has been tough. Racism and homophobia is a huge problem at our school. I would like to see the admin put their foot down when it comes to these issues.

The teachers there are phenomenal. They are very understanding, respectful, caring, informative, and are always on top of their students grades. The SROs (student resource officers) are extremely funny and very kind. However, disciplinary actions at this school are becoming unfair and unreasonable....
