Athletic programs are fantastic, unless you're a male trying to play a varsity sport. If your family or last name is not well known, it can be difficult.

I like how close knit the community is and how envolved everyone gets at school events such as homecoming. I dislike how under funded many of the programs are. Music, in particular provides opportunity for over 100 hardworking students. I would hate for future generations not to be able to have the opportunities I did.

I definitely enjoy going to school here. It has a great atmosphere and some great classes. My view, however may be limited because it's the only high school I've ever attended. I don't really have anything to compare it to except what I believe other schools are like. With that said, this school had great teachers. I can't think of a single one who doesn't genuinely care about their students. I feel pretty iffy about the principal however, but he's new this year, so maybe I just don't like the transition.

The teachers were good in all. Just that when popular kids and adults complain to the school on y there kid isn't getting any playing time and reports so many times to get a coached fired. In reality the kid doesn't really deserve to be played at all

the school is more focussed on football or the appearance of the school they forget about the students & what they truely need. They raised he price of school lunches & lowered the portion sizes. I feel that since the students are growing & don;t have the same stomach size as they did in elementary...
