Okay, this school is gradually growing. It can use some more improvements in some areas, but all around its a good school. The football field and the gym is looking better than ever. The school is always pushing for you for success. They have different routes for specific desire (sports, health, arts, agriculture etc.) Their AVID is great, but some of those teachers are not so great. There are always teachers offering help during break, lunch, and after school. They have plenty of AP and honors classes to offer. The regular classes are often quite the loud ones depending on the students. Sometimes teachers quit trying to keep the kids down and continue to teach to those who want to learn. There also is quite a lot of extracurricular classes. Most of the people I know are in at least one or two. Lunch food. The food is probably not be exactly “healthy”, but the do encourage to get fruits or vegetables before you leave. There are 4 different lunch lines: the barbecue line, cold food, hot food, and the main cafeteria line. The barbecue offers chicken burger, hamburger, cheeseburger, and hot dog. You can put whatever you'd like in your burger/hot dog(lettuce, cheese,etc.) and grab your condiments after you pay. With fruits, chips, pretzels, or crackers to grab before you leave. The cold and food are self-explanatory. There are two separate lines. Cold food provides salad in a cup thing which is called a shaker, and different types of sandwiches. I can't quite remember the whole list, but they have it posted on the window . The hot food has burritos, calzones, and others. Can't remember much on this one either, but it does have it posted on the window also. They have fruits, platter of veggies to offer with ranch, and the small snacks. Ah, the cafeteria line. The main line where those grab their breakfast, brunch, and lunch. The breakfast line is literally a just come in and left within a minute or two. Brunch is quite hectic since people cut right and left. I can kinda of get it since we only have 10mins to eat, but people get quite pushy. Lunch is more smooth flowing. You enter through a different door and two separate lines for buffet line and the patty sandwich line. Buffet also is different everyday.

Almost everything about this school is fantastic. Being a human though, there are a couple nit picky things, but not worth mentioning. Starting at the top, mrs. Williams (principal) is very welcoming. Not to say she's a pushover, she's what she needs to be when necessary. All the children seem very at ease with her, which you want at this age. She makes it easier to approach her if they are having issues. All of the first grade teachers are wonderful and hope they plan on staying forever. I haven't heard too many negative things about any of the teachers really! Campus is clean, and well maintained. It is a closed campus, becoming even more secure daily. We trust this staff with our children's lives and they are doing their share to make us feel secure. If you see something, report it and they are on top of it! I'd give this school a 9.9 out of 10.

awful school & awful staff, been told many rude things by the office ladies (been called stupid, accused of fake crying, “what do you want.. i don’t like you”), i tried to tell the counselor i was getting bullied and i was told i was overreacting, staff never helped me when i told them i was getting bullied, wasn’t allowed to do tutoring during home room because the teacher thought i was ditching class (they found me in the math teachers classroom), and overall treated like a prisoner. this school is even stricter than high school, and this is coming from a high school graduate. do not send your kids here, especially if they struggle with mental health.
