special education dismissive of student potential. guidance department didn't offer college guidance just because I have an IEP. Some good teachers, some not as good. Administration focused on high achieving students only.

I am at the top of my class, and throughout my career in this school my teachers have e always been attentive to my needs and the needs of others always trying to help where they can. I also am an athlete and part of many different clubs, I would say we have a good variety of both. I am also a part of the School Board where many different topics are brought up and I would say our admin does a wonderful job at addressing what they can.

While I was there, I also had to endure an abstinence based sex education program that wasn't entirely accurate (e...
