This school has few extra activities. Even athletic programs are limited. Though our gym is new(er) our buildings are sprawled out, and it is though to get to class in time, even without conversations.

Miss. Lynn and mr. Carpenter were my favorite teachers in 7th and 8th grade they made school worth going.
