It's like most other schools, good things and bad things. I would recommend a change in the school about how it responds to events. During last year when it was popular to steal from the bathrooms, they closed only guy bathrooms and left the girl bathrooms opened.

Overall, I believe that our school is an excellent school that strives to achieve betterment for its students. This school has not only furthered my academics but also taught me life lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. They want what is best for their students and try to do everything they can for us to be college and career ready for our future endeavors. Furthermore, I was truly blessed to have went to this school and believe that it has impacted my life positively as I know it has many others.
