This is a very dangerous school. A student advised me that is it normal for students to bring guns to school here daily. The security cameras outside do not work. Do not allow you child to attend.

All three of my kids graduated from here. I would give it a 7. Overall experience was good but too many teachers don’t help enough. They definitely need better Math Teachers. The Principal is great and the Band is a wonderful program!
