The school is the greatest. My daughter loves the school spirit and friendliness that she received when we mo the area. Falcon pride is the best. Staff always goes above and beyond...

The lowest test scores with such a low student-teacher ratio. I attended up until graduating in 2003. There were multiple cases of teachers having relations with students that were simply brushed under the rug. The entire administration was absolute garbage back in 2003. They should just tear it all down.
