I went there a few years, but had to change schools. the food is terrible and my brother had gotten food poisoning. The sports are good, but you are looked down on and not liked if you don't do sports. The environment is not the best, and it the school has really gone down hill in the last couple of years. I do not recommend it .

I did like how organize they are and the clubs are very good. I would like to see them change the lunch food because it's gross and the teachers that pick there favorites.

Some of the teachers come and go, but many of them are very kind and will help if needed. Some food days are good while others aren't the best. Overall, good experience coming from someone who has been here since kindergarten.
