I went here until my junior year. One of the guidance counselors spends a large part of her day socializing with other staff rather than helping students. The school nurse is rarely available, there are days she's gone for 4 periods and even when she's their not much of her attention is put towards the students. The principle is rarely there. The school deals very poorly with issues like anxiety and depression. They have some good clubs (Multicultural club, Drama club, Amnesty International, etc). They teach french, spanish, german and one of the language teachers even teaches farsi during her free period. They have some AP, and honors options. They are the only school in the area offering photography with film cameras(This may have changed as the art teacher retired). I believe they excel in swimming, but definitely not a school for football players. The football team seems sadder each year. The best teachers/staff; Ms. Fresn Ms. W-T Mr. Larose Ms. Seeber Coach Latremore The worst; Heather Hall Mr. Hurlock Nurse Maggie Ms. Levaque Ms. Tregan

Graduated early, my junior year, and glad I did. What can I say, it's your typical public school, some teachers weaker than others, some more like-able, you just have to luck out. The budget has been getting weaker and weaker year by year, which entails more and more cuts. Like I said, glad I finished early.

When it comes down to it, this is an alright school. The thing that keeps it on the map though, are the teachers. An amazing staff of educators who truly care about the kids. Right down to the monitors and the custodial staff.

What can you say about this school district- it cost $36 million/ year and pays way more attention to the union wants than the kids.. look at the results. What a huge waste of money.
