My experience attending john paul stevens high school, I would say is about average. The band program is very good but the sport is very much lacking in any accomplishments. The administration is lazy slow and story about rules amd regulation.

I gained a fun education at Stevens. The teachers are nice and understanding and very helpful. The food isn't the best but some days lunch was pretty good! My coaches were some of the best people I ever worked with and still talk to now. It was easy to learn and actually enjoy it!
