School Reviews
2 10/10/2025
If you like crowded halls, lack of respect from students, and you want to instill fear or hatred for school, then this is the school for your kids.
4 10/10/2025
The good: Teachers care about the performance of the students, the athletic programs are mostly competitive, the students get along with each other and engage in cooperative learning. The debate program excels. The bad: The counselors do not show much interest in helping the students make decisions in terms of academics. The theater program could be so much more than it is. There is some drug use among the students at school. The debate program, and by and large most non-athletic programs go unnoticed by the administration. The students of this school outperform students of similar backgrounds who attend other public schools.
