Overall I had an amazing 3 years at this school. The environment, teachers, faculty, and students made it memorable. Being able to learn hands on, and understand what I'm learning to take it to the next years was crucial. Opportunities were endless here, there was always a way to excel as long as you wanted to do it, you could. No one ever discouraged me, only ever helped push me to become better and gave me the want to learn and do more not only for myself but for those around me and in my community

I had students follow me home, and jump me. I was bullied badly. Came home crying, scared to go the next day, and moved cities because of bullying and sexual assault.
