Just graduated from this school. One of the worst experiences in my life. Administration is terrible, all they care about are themselves.They don’t want students get in trouble only to not get in trouble themselves. Even on our graduation, more than 3/4 of principal’s speech was about how cell phones are bad because of cyber bullying. No punishments are established for bad behaving students. Our assistant principal told us what would happen, but it never happened to anyone. Maximum - teachers’ call home. This school doesn’t care about their students’ mental health either. Multiple times throughout the year, principal sent to teachers emails and announced through intercom that “there is no time to spend on socialization”. Only good thing about this school are the teachers. Most of them do actually care about the students, however they can’t do much, as school administration doesn’t care. School aids don’t care about children either. Two of them said that they don’t care about students multiple times throughout my 3 years there. One of them, who was monitoring cafeteria bathroom was crouching in order to see if children were using their phones in bathroom stalls. Overall most of the students feel constant mental pressure and stress in this school. If your child says that they don’t like their school, listen to them and transfer to the school with better rating.

The Principal at this school was changed about 3 years ago. Everything has changed since then. My son has and IEP and his former teacher would emphasize in every meeting that my son had to be put into a smaller environment. He will benefit from a smaller class. This took place in November and not until April when the year is almost over he was re-evaluated and placed in a smaller class. When calling the school some of the staff is rude and unprofessional. I wish my children could go to another school.

It’s a pretty good school not gonna lie since it’s so small there’s a nice community of students who all mostly get along with each other. The academics are alright nothing lacking there. The only thing is that since freshman year we’ve been sharing part of newcomers high school and this other small building to house our classes, it kinda sucks and it’s pretty crowded in such a small space. Next year my senior year we are moving to a much nicer and a lot bigger building over in northern boulevard were the old sports authority was. Not a bad school at all the robotics program is pretty good and the teachers are really chill. This is a great school if your trying to make opportunities for yourself like making new clubs starting sports teams, and extracurriculars in general.
