A very good teacher I have currently disciplines me not harsh but also not easy but also a good educational chance to have in my life . The food there is decent a four or higher especially the Pizzas on Fridays.and we even got to do a whole big speech in front of the school which is a great chance to practice my public speaking for the future.and recess is very nice in the MCA my teacher said if your good there will be extra recess if your not you will lose recess but you could gain it back by being good and that's why it's fair actually more than fair that's my review.

I have been in this school since I was in Kindergarten. Almost all of the teachers help out in anyway they can when they see a need for it. Their education is amazing, and so is their after school activities. I really liked their Mock Trial team, and also their High School student council. Although their resources are average, they make the most of what they have when it comes to helping students.
