We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My high school experience has been phenomenal, I've had help when I need it and the school involvement is available.

The best part about having attended this school is the community, before the school started cutting programs there was an array of different communities in that school. For a while it was enjoyable to be at until the school started to put its funding into the wrong places. Along with the bad funding the admin at that school discouraged students from exploring other learning opportunities.
