As an alumni, the school sucks. All the students are racist and rude. The education is bare minimum. As a brown student, they didn't even offer AP classes to student with a 4.0 gpa. They let other students in which were majority of African American.

if there was a 3.5 star that's what I'd give it. it's a good school but could be more fun activities or events that the STUDENTS would enjoy and recommend. on the other hand, teachers are helpful and try their best with you.

It's like most public schools. The school lunch is fine but some days I'm not really feeling up to it. I dislike how they offer commute to students. Some have to walk to school because that's their only way of transportation but its a long walk, especially in bad weather. The teacher is good but that only 9 times out of 10. I would say something they don't enforce enough but otherwise, it is getting better.

My experience in this school is terrible not with the teachers but majority from the security guards and the staff in the main office.
