As a parent of a recent graduate, I cannot say enough good things about our experience at this high school. My son had a fantastic four years and truly felt a part of a community. The relationships he built with his teachers were outstanding, and their dedication to student success was evident in every interaction.From a parent's perspective, I was particularly impressed by the visibility and hands-on approach of the principal and the administrative team. It was amazing to see the principal know so many of the students by name, which fostered a strong sense of personal connection and care. We also greatly appreciated the numerous advanced course offerings. My son is now in his first semester of college and feels incredibly well-prepared, a testament to the school's rigorous and supportive academic environment. We highly recommend this school to any family looking for a top-notch educational experience.

2 out of 4 of my children have experienced lies, mental abuse, and safety concerns at this school under the same teacher. Yesterday, my child was finally moved to a different class because the school counselor and VP said it was no longer a safe environment for my daughter. Not because of other children putting her at risk, but because of the teacher herself. They openly acknowledge that the treatment my daughter has received is absolutely unacceptable and according to them "no child should have to go through this." Other children have expressed similar concerns this year about the same teacher. I can't understand if they admit that this is literally a child safety issue (their own words) then why would they allow other kids to continue to be in danger. When the teacher was told the reasons for my child moving classes today, she felt the need to tell the other kids in her classroom that it was my daughter's fault for "speaking negatively" about the teacher. This is both untrue because my daughter did no such thing but also untrue because it is not the reason for her removal. This is potentially slander at this point and is completely unacceptable and should not be condoned by leadership staff. The counselors have been absolutely fantastic at this school and I wish I could give them more specific praise than just 5 stars in socio-emotional support, but I cant not say the same for the rest of the staff. Beware about sending your children to this school. We are moving my children to another school completely.
