It's an ok school, people form clicks and teachers have favorites. They're inclusive with music, arts, and sports but that's about it.

So far, I've had a great time at the school, though I understand because Warwick is a small town, the diversity isn't necessarily the best. Because I am involved in the arts, I appreciate the amount of opportunities the school gives, and that's been amazing. Academics wise, I also feel like this high school really prioritizes it.

A good, solid experience. Lots of offerings in high school. Maybe whiter/wealthier than US averages but not an enclave. Reliable. But be active !
