I liked that I could take college courses and they helped me do my EMT certification. The food was not the greatest. Better food.

My experience overall was pretty good. The best parts were the variety of classes offered and the college courses offered at the school. The worst parts were not getting some of the classes that I wanted and some of the guidelines in the school. I would want it to become more student independent, rather than teacher dependent.

This is a relatively average high school. I think academics and college preparedness are two things this high school does well. But, there is a lack of diversity within the teachers and subject matter that is taught at the school.
