My child and I have had nothing but problems with this school. She has been mistreated by a wide range of the schoolÂ’s staff multiple times to the point where she was receiving false zeros to bring down her grade. She reached out to bring awareness to the situation multiple times and nothing was done about it. It is unfortunate that the staff is the problem in what is supposed to be a safe and supportive school environment. The constant harassment has gone on way too long and no child should have to go through this. I will absolutely be transferring her, do not register your children here.

I was a year long substitute teacher in 2022-2023, taking over 4 computer science classes and one PreCalculus Class. The students in these classes were very respectful. Every student rose and recited the pledge of allegiance aloud. Students worked daily with their chromebooks as well as whatever handouts I distributed. I was a computer design engineer in my previous life, so I occasionally found computer science assignments as well as cybersecurity assignments for the students to do. The student enthusiasm was refreshing. Some seniors in my classes had taken AP BC Calculus as juniors and received a 5, so the potential to perform above and beyond exists. Teacher meetings were thoughtful regarding the interesting things and unenthusiastic about routine things forced upon them. I liked that. Principal Adams seems to strike the proper balance between organic and bureaucratic leadership - also refreshing. I liked it well enough to return for a 3 month stint this coming September. Parents are involved because kids are well-behaved. Some come forward as necessary. The students are encouraged, but not pushed to perform. How did it get so awesome?
