We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There are not many extracurriculars at this school but the ones we have are well constructed and have good support and teamwork when needed. There isn't a lot besides the basic sports like football, volleyball, basketball, track, softball/baseball, golf, etc.

I would choose to go here if the school continued to make the changes it is making now.
