(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Maybe in 2009 this school had teachers and staff that cared. I have a student graduating this year, and I am so thankful to be done with this school! The (...) lives in his own world, and does not see things that happen right in front of him. Students who try to get help are told to keep their problems out of the school. Really? That's how you help a child? Like I said, happy this is our last year with this school.

(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This high school has 120-140 students per grade and small class sizes. Teachers are very helpful to students. There are many extracurricular activities.
