I went to this school in 6th and 7th grade, I was on pep squad and drill team. 6th grade was probably the worst year of my life. I wouldn’t ever wish the year I had on my worst enemy! I was bullied super bad by 7th and 8th graders in PE, in PE I was constantly bullied for being not good at the games like volley tennis and dodge ball. And when I emailed and told the teachers THEY DID N O T H I N G. In 7th things got better due to me being in drill team PE instead of regular PE. Life was better but I was still made fun and talked about by others. On another note the advanced classes are great and I learned a lot! I wouldn’t say I would recommend this school but I can tell you that you will learn lots and try to avoid choosing the wrong friends.

Honestly - schools pretty cool, teachers are nice, most of them, students are cool. The teachers are good at teaching and the school gets some good grades. Most of the kids are nice, exempting most of the "popular girls" and "football guys." Schools cool though. Would recommend sending your kid here.

I go this school it is absolute hell. The buses are discussing , the students say Homphobic things and the IEP teachers just talk to the normal teachers for the whole period, and students that forget their Chromebook get yelled at and made fun of. And all the students that have a Chromebook get candy and have Spyware on are own computers and Malware the teachers don't care about the students problems.
