It's an excellent school with good teachers practically a private school that's free there isn't much in the way of diversity including class options but the teachers more than make up for it. they have encouraged me to try constantly. the only things that are lacking is diversity and good food. lunch is quite short so you must Scarfe down soggy greasy food that's been frozen for months.
