This is the school everyone has warned you about. If you can help it, choose elsewhere to send your child. The flights are bad, the culture is bad, the staff is just trying to get by with the bad hands they've been delt. The only saving grace is the STEM program that the base pays for, even though it doesn't benefit the folks who work on base (proportionally). So avoid unless STEM.
