  • i remember this school and those halls in the back of my head. Of course i have got to those halls are very small and not that difficult to learn it is just one big circle. the teachers here are awesome. they all have different personalities and know how to teach there students about the world around them and what they will expect to see in the future. I grade this school a b+ because i feel like the students there are not as well behave and such as i believe they should be. other wise this school should be graded an a if the students were more corrupt.
