A very white-supremacist feeling school. I am an Asian-mixed person who formerly transferred into the school in the middle of my high school journey. Requirements are extremely strict, extremely conservative ideas and rules (you face severe punishment for hugging someone, as an example;) not only this, but doing anything in the school outside of the curriculum takes an utter fortnight of steps in order to reach the goal.The students are definitely a huge problem. Being a white-dominant school, I was definitely a huge target for racism. Getting cornered, screamed at in the ear, my name being shouted like a slur, being talked to by my peers like I was an alien. This is for having ADHD, not willing to hurt anyone, and often helping others in need. Although, I was playful, I was often a mime when it comes to humour, but my peers are extremely unknowledgeable about any kind of humour unless it's told completely to their face. I was extremely disappointed.A side tangent: I remember being inside an AP group project, and because I talked with an accent with a 99% white class; all of my group mates pretended like they couldn't hear me. And this happened for almost every group project I was in. Pet peeve if you ask me.Do not involve yourself into any Advanced Placement program unless you are incredibly masochistic. This school gives an absolutely overzealous workload, with Advanced Placement stacked on top of it; it is an absolute hellish nightmare. I was getting over a huge case of severe depression when I was going to the school, and all of the habits only kicked back in because of how much work was getting. It was like my freetime was non-existent, having going multiple weeks without proper cleaning, sleep, or even eating because there was just so much work. Sometimes, I'd just leave the work for another day and my grade definitely suffered because of it.I do not recommend this school if you are a racial and mental minority to those amongst you. And I do not have hope for the school's community going forward.

Very responsive and supportive principal. This school takes parent concerns very seriously! Every time I have emailed about anything the response is prompt and thorough. We had an incident with another student and it was taken very seriously and respectfully. Not sure why the scores are so low on here. Both my kids are minorities and test very high academically and get good grades. I know the behavioral disorder program for the region is now housed here. I wonder if that’s why? I feel like students in the BD program struggle no matter where they are due to their personal challenges.

It is a great school in a great school district

My daughter was in the dual language program and we had a lot of ups and downs due to the transitional nature of the program and teacher shortages. Once I switched her into a general education classroom it was awesome. Her teacher was amazing and so supportive of her. Concepts in all subjects were taught well and clearly. Really great on math and science, too. We ended up getting a 504 and the principal, social worker, and teachers were incredible through this process.
