I used to be a student there and it prepared me for high school. Although I didn't participate in their sports or their student council, I still had a great time being a part of this school. Some of the teachers were amazing and I enjoyed their teaching methods.

Just a bad school. Gang problems and drugs reported. Mr lent is a nice man but it seems he has a hard time controlling students bad behavior. Could use more one on one help with students that need more help but they don't seem to care.
