This school is definitely not the school it used to be several years ago! The previous CEO was caught embezzling and her attitude was horrible! The so-called career counseling dept of the high school failed their students miserably! for 3 consecutive school years the middle/high school had 3 different principals. No consistency across the board and the overall attitude from most of the teachers was that they could care less! After my oldest graduated in 2014, I promptly pulled my middle-school child out and returned back to our district's public school!

The school is not like it used to be. The teachers are young and inexperienced. The administrators have no patience or creativity in stopping the bad behavior of the majority of the students. It's just really sad to see a school that was once great turn out this way.
