i'm currently in this school as a senior and my time was spent having to see fights and bomb threats last year, kids making out in the hallways, teachers getting mad at the kids and kids in general just getting on my nerves but i would recommend it for the clubs they offer and how helpful the career college lady is because you can ask her anything about college and she has the answer. some teachers are amazing to build a relationship with because they are usually calm and they actually have kids like them.the downside is the buses pickup and dismissal and kids being dropped off/picked up in cars, my mom has started to drop me off at school by car since the middle of last year but i go on the bus in the after noon, the car line isn't bad if you leave early but around 7:30 am its hella packed and there is only one street with two lanes going different directions and when we its dismissal kids and myself have to rush to our buses because its always full and thats another problem!! kids walk so slow and they walk in a line which takes time especially when your last period is in a corner and your spanish teacher doesnt let you leave early.

Best counselor, I found it the way I was recommended!

This school has their ups and downs, the upsetting thing is that my child would come home saying there was fights and discrimination of color, even hurtful appearance discrimination. In this environment, a child can’t concentrate in. They also don’t offer many opportunities, only sports. What if a kid wants to do debating? Or crafty things? They don’t put an effort for this. They also don’t put effort for actual sources they can trust for learning. A child shouldn’t learn about something that is wrong. The refreshing news is that children have a few world languages they can learn, from what I’ve heard from my child — is that many teachers do believe that a child has a talent even if they don’t show it. That kids refuse to even try, but a real teacher listens and helps. This, this is what a teacher is, they believe. Last thing is the children. Again — coming from my child about the fights and how students wouldn’t listen to teachers, would say horrible things, and disrespect other students. Obviously for children this is fun to watch, or even participate in. But, please educate your children, and for teachers — go hard on them, soft words won’t change anything. This is my review, thank you.
