the school is mediocre, I hate coming to school because almost everyone at this school is either rude or annoying, I get overloaded with work everyday and I only like 4 of the staff here. also I dislike some of the food here

I love how flexible the teachers are, and their willingness. My favorite class is Media Tech, where we make video announcements. I enjoy my teacher and the small class. If there is one thing I would like to change it would be to have open lunch.
