I'm currently a freshman at this school and one thing I can say is this school is genuinely horrible. The teachers do try to help you learn but majority of teachers just stack u with homework, it's only been 4 months since school has started and I've had 142 homework assignments so far. Every teacher I've had so far genuinely only cares about giving you homework, teachers don't care if you have stuff to do after school they will fail u and they are all close minded. The deans at this school have got to be the worst, you could literally just breath and they will be on you for everything, also this school is insanely strict for no reason yes it is a health school but teachers don't take anything students say into consideration. overall this school is big but there's too many students which makes it small, meaning it takes time to get to class and teachers will mark you late and say you should've been early even though the hallways are crowded. The bathrooms are always full cause people go in their to smoke or just use their phones, deans will yell at you during your lunch if u of being in the library or the lunchroom. Counselor, nurses, and office ladies/school tech are geniunally the only people in this school that seem to care just a little, the 11th grade counselor however is very disrespectful and mean. Some teachers disrespectful students just because they're older, a teacher will fail you if u were absent and have a note just because you missed the work. This school is horrible

This is a good school because my child is making academic progress, is excited about learning, and enjoys the school community. The class sizes are larger than the ideal size. Yet, even with the larger class sizes, the teachers meet the challenges and they are experienced and qualified. The parent involvement is great. Since the school and the parents work together, it benefits the children. (I hope this year goes well.)

I DONT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL, THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL HAVES FAVORITISM TOWARDS KIDS THAT DONT HAVE IEP, THE STAFF CALLS ALL THE TIME FOR THINGS THAT NOT AN EMERGENCY, INSTEAD OF IMPORTANT THINGS THAT ALWAYS LAST MINUTE. THE TEACHERS RESPOND LATE, THE TEACHERS DONT HELP THE STUDENTS THEY PREFER ANOTHER STUDENT TO HELP INSTEAD, WHEN KIDS BULLY OTHER KIDS THEY DONT HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE, THE AMOUNT OF FAVORITISM IN THIS SCHOOL IS HUGE AND THE STAFF ARE ALL UNPROFESSIONAL. IF YOUR CHILD HAVES An IEP DONT BRING YOUR CHILD HERE, HE/SHE WON'T GET THE RIGHT EDUCATION.
