This school is amazing!!!
1 11/2/2017
this school is only worried about sports nothing else. they are more worried about our uniforms and hair than our grades which mainly keep this school open any way. they don't care like they say they care about the students here. like i have already said this school Removeds and is way more worried about sports than education

This school is worried about football and not the academics of the students. The students are not getting the education they should be getting with the teacher student ratio. These students should be way ahead of the other students in the other schools in the parishs. They also worry too much about the students uniforms and where they get them instead of getting books for all of them to study out of.

- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
