- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on June 26, 2007
- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Academically this is a great school. The kids are challenged in a safe learning environment, most of the teachers care. The second high school being built will reduce crowding. If athletics are at all important to your child, this is not the school for him/her (unless it's volleyball).
