The school overall wasn't bad. I have been to many school throughout my childhood as I moved around almost every year my entire life until Yreka High School where I stayed from freshman to senior year. The school has its negatives and bad influences as does any School. Although, the support system as this school is pretty good and the teachers seem to focus and care about you. I liked it.
