They catch kids using drugs in the bathrooms (even finding drugs on them) and after multiple times (literally 4 times in two three months) still only gives them 3 days suspensions. No police. No expulsion. Repeated times and still nothing major done. Nothing is being done at all. A terrible school. Avoid unless you want your kid going into bathrooms full of drug smoke. They cant keep the drugs out of this school.

This review is for worrying parents who are concerned with school ratings provided by great schools. Don't be fooled by ratings, this is a great school indeed. My both kids went to this school and were part of AP programs. Some disgruntled parents with a bad taste might have left some negative reviews. Overall this school is great.

Stay away. This school is terrible. Theres a fight every single week. Vaping in the school. An insane amount of homework (hours and hours every night and twice as much on the weekends). I cant wait to move. All these positive reviews were from years ago.

So far our experience is positive. Teacher response time is a little slow - but over all they have a sound approach to education and curriculum. The Principal seems to have a good handle on things as well as the asst. principal .
