We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There is a dress code, but its not really enforced unless its something that really crosses the line. There are a few occasions when the usual trouble makers get in trouble, and they get a little bit of out of school suspension, but those events happen very infrequently.

The cafeteria's food is not the best and not always filling, but is a bit better than other school's food I bet. The location is good, and the timing is usually good in my opinion. The cooks serve only two options, at least its free, and there is a salad bar that is provided for those who get a lunch.

There will always be peer pressure, but that's not a problem if you can be who you are. Most of the students here are Hispanic, and there are only only 4 non- Hispanics that I can think of including me. The school supports sports, and so many students participate and are therefor athletic. Due to it being a small town, their way of thought is very narrow, and are very religious.
