- I like it a lot but some things I do not like about this school, is not just our football team's scores but some teachers. Don't get me wrong our teaching staff is excellent, but some teachers just give us students a book and say " here read it". One of my teachers, my math teacher is a good teacher but when her children ask her problems about the subject or ask her if she could slow down on the lesson plan and review what she just covered, she says " No you should have payed attention, I'm not going over it again". but all in all its a great school just a little bit of problems but a great school.

- i want to say that this is a fun school and the students are very friendly unless u have a bully or something and the sro officers will take care of that.... if you will be a freshman next year just know that u will have a lot of fun at this school and most of the teachers are nice except mr.cross and mrs.hughes just kidding..... the upperclassmen are nice but they will try to trick you by saying that your new class is in I wing or the pool is on the 2nd floor... there is no I wing and no pool on the 2nd floor have a nice time and respect ur upperclassmen
