I gave these ratings because the learning experience was honestly underwhelming. Some teachers mainly read directly from slides, and when students ask questions, they sometimes seem annoyed rather than supportive. It also felt like certain teachers favored students involved in sports while being rude or dismissive toward others. Another frustrating part was being constantly told not to use AI, while some assignments clearly appeared to be created using AI tools themselves. If the school expects students not to rely on AI, teachers should set the same example. Regarding safety, I rated it one star because there were too many unnecessary drills, especially the “secure and hold” drills, which often caused stress and disruption. There were also students openly using inappropriate language in front of assistant principals, and it would often be ignored because they seemed familiar with them. Meanwhile, other students would get in trouble immediately for the same behavior. That inconsistency was frustrating to see. Another issue was the lack of guidance when it came to important courses and planning for the future. Many students are expected to figure things out on their own instead of receiving clear explanations or support from counselors and staff.

Overall I think it is an average school, definitely not a bad school. The biggest problem is the school is over crowded and this makes it hard on the teachers to concentrate on kids and make them excel by pushing the kids a little.

Award winning school, would definitely recommend. One of the best in town.
