The food has really improved in the last year, however tax payers will NOT be happy once they see how much the new cooks are spending on top of the line food! It is outrageous how much money is being wasted on the new food!

Athletics is a major part of this school. They have a top of the line training room. The teams have fan and student support. There are perks to being athletic, miss more days of school and teachers seem to favor athletes more.
