1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat school, and staff who cares. Highschool is a step into adulthood, you get what you put into it. If you fail to go to class, do your work and actively learn then no, your not going succeed. Teachers always help when asked if you don’t understand something or need extra help. Your social life here is what you put into it, there are tons of clubs and extra clubs or sports you can participate in. My councilors helped with college apps and helped me get a number of scholarships.Other Review7mo ago - Wright Elementary School
