I enjoyed the experience in this school and I am still enjoying, the teachers always help to the students when they need help and in case you have any problem with homeworks or etc, you can always contact to the teacher via email and he/she always helps you.
It is a very good school, it deserves more

This school has no support for students who need special support. The teachers are self involved and are overwhelmed with a classroom of 33 students. Principal at this school would rather hand you, as a parent a packet to (job corp, military school, etc) versuses finding a solution to help students whom are on the verge of failing or wanting to drop out of school. What does that say about an administrator? If this is lead by the director, then you know it is followed by staff. Kids are not challenged or pushed to their potential.

All I gotta say is, the admin only care about themselves. Nothing new
Posted: March 19, 2017
I have never felt more uncomfortable at a school. Everyone here is judgmental; including the teachers and admin. I feel dumb & insecure when it comes to answering questions.
Posted: March 19, 2017
I would say they are overly strict & have unnecessary rules. They care more about themselves & what other kids are wearing/doing rather than what they are learning.
Posted: March 19, 2017
All the students seem the same & have no respect. This school is FILLED with disrespectful students & doesn't have any originality whatsoever. All the students look the same & act the same; no respect. This school acts as if it's a prison.

They only care about themselves & whether or not they're comfortable. What it seems like to me Is it's not about the students at this school & whether they're getting a good education. It's ALL about the teachers and admin & it's ridiculous

This school gives out homework on things students haven't learned yet or are having trouble learning. No student should have to have their world revolve around school when they already have so much going on as it is. I think homework should be banned.

I have moved from school to school and this school is BY FAR the worst school. The admin & teachers are selfish & only care about themselves. I strongly feel that this school does not focus on the students & what they are learning. They are strict in ways they shouldn't be. The admin don't give the students a chance to express themselves & feel comfortable learning. They exclude things that should not be excluded; like dress code for example... the dress code is completely unnecessary. Students should be allowed to express themselves in ways they'd like & be able to wear what they like instead of dressing like everyone else. There is by far no originality at this school & it's ridiculous. The only thing this school cares about is what a student is wearing,whether or not they have an ID, too worried about chromebooks & whether it has a case on or not & last but not least themselves rather than worrying about the students education. I have had by far the worst school experience being at this school & have even had thoughts of dropping out BECAUSE of this school. This school is the worst.

Great school! Lots of activities to keep the students busy and out of trouble. Administration and faculty are great and have created an outstanding and safe learning environment.

I am both the parent of a student and a teacher at this school. It is one of the best schools I have worked at in my 18 years of teaching. Teachers & administrators have the best interest of students in mind. Administrators who support the teachers and students. We are technology rich, academically rigourous, and award-winning in multiple areas.

My daughter has been enrolled in this school since her Freshman year and is currently a Senior. I believe the teachers, coaches, and administration staff truly focus on the students and what's best for their future.

I personally think this school is right on target helping students prepare for the future. They have degree plans for each student that helps plan out the courses they take based on their career focus. I wish we had schools like this when I was young!

This is the worst school i've ever been at. why? you ask because the lunch lines are deplorable the teachers lose assignments and then say its not there job to keep up with assignments even though its a teachers job basiclly is to take the assignments keep the assignments and then grade the assignments. right or wrong. right. SO when i write by hand an act 2 summary and turn it in and then she even says that i could write it by hand but after i do so my grade lowers to a 45 because of the fact i didn't turn it in through google classroom.
