3.0 Junior

2/7/2024

My school is made up of mostly latinos. Sports are limited and classes are chosen for us. Theres not many elective, and it's difficult to take classes that relate to what you want to study. They have good academics, but I would like to see a bigger range of classes

The best parts of this school is the teachers. We have amazing teachers and staff, however organization and things like clubs is something we don't have much of and i'd like for them to improve.

IDEA has so many opportunities there. It's not a huge number of students that attend so you will make friends. Since it's a small school you receive more individual attention. Very amazing school
