10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat reputation. Fails to live up to it. Academics are beyond mediocre and at times can be quite bad. Most teachers can not teach, some are excellent, it’s really all luck. Way better than it used to be in terms of academic pressure because at least kids aren’t offing themselves anymore….? Toxic social environment. Administration is performative and tries to push wokeness onto students but epically fails because kids are still bullies. If you aren’t wealthy, white/asian, obsessed with getting into an ivy, and insanely egotistical you won’t fit in with more than half of the school. South kids don’t appreciate individuality. They are mostly robotic and all the same. Pretty bad school overall. Miserable experience.Other Review1y ago
