Our experience at this school was deeply disappointing. My son experienced what felt less like discipline and more like teachers using their authority in ways that were intimidating and unfair. Every child deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported at school. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

Horrible school. They have the worst communication with families. They use ParentVue to communicate about everything. You will get 100 post about things you don’t care about and zero posts about things like yearbooks and bell schedule changed, you know important things. Office staff are rude. I once tried to bring snacks to my kid’s class and the office lady wouldn’t even let me sign in to take them to class. These were snacks the teacher asked for and here’s the office staff gatekeeping me out of the classroom. It’s clear the school is out of money from the dirty carpet, hazardous parking lot full of pot holes, and lack of creative art. Classrooms are full of kids who bully other children. Teachers can’t control their students or manage to send proper communications home. We should have pursued a private school.

I have a sophomore and an incoming freshman. There are plenty of choices for their courses and extra-curricular activities and the culture of the students are mature and hard working. There are some very high caliber teachers embedded in the school with a long history of commitment to teaching, including the principal. As long as your child comes in with a great attitude, there will be plenty of opportunities to thrive whether it’s academically or exploring and pursuing their interests.
