I wish I had done more checking before choosing this high school for my son. There is no gym, no cafeteria, and the library is a joke. Kids graduating from this school test at only 25% proficient in math and 53% proficient in reading. They don't even bother to test for college readiness. The sad thing is that this is still a better school than the ones in our district.

The school is a very good school I have had two of my own children graduate from this school on a third that is on track to do the same. My first two that have graduated from there are very successful individuals both are going to college to get there degrees. My youngest of my 4 children will be going there as well. I have never had a problem with staff not teaching there students. Although it is a charter school they do their best to give students the traditional High School experience. They do give out athletic awards, hence they have different sports available. And they do prepare students for college and strongly encourage the students to take full opportunity on the duo credit program.

School is overall great. Teachers are mostly easy going and willing to go the extra mile for you if you communicate your needs. Bathrooms are dirty though.
