Has good teachers. The special education program needs to be more valued by the administration. It was not only until my junior year of high school did they realize why I was struggling to bad in school. I had ADHD and in all my IEP meetings the teachers and administrator kept telling me I needed to try harder. You do not tell someone who has worked there butt off to be able to walk across that stage to work harder because I tried my hardest but still needed help and I had to fight for months for them to agree to my IEP plan and needs.

We have more than one trained EMT in our school system, we also carry out drug dog searches and have many assemblies dealing with drugs and violence. I feel that our school system is safe.
