Some of the teachers are great resources when it comes to being prepared for college or learning criteria needed to move on with your life. The students make the environment almost unbareable though.

Location was good. Had some great teachers but they left to get other jobs. My friends, I loved them. Did not like the cafeteria food, rules in regards to signing out for lunch.
