The best experiences tended to come from interactions between toher students and staff. Administration made much of the high school years rough due to constant budget cuts, shifts in Administration due to irresponsible use of funding or biased layoffs.

The teachers and staff really care about students and there are a lot of class options and other opportunities for students, especially for being a small school. The music programs in particular are top notch for the area as well, although music facilities are greatly lacking.

I never got the food from the school, I'm sure it's not awful but I always brought a bagged lunch.
