I personally like this school and coming from California this school makes California schools look like garbage. There is more structure and rules for these adolescents that have a lot of hormones and need direction. So I love this school.

This school provides very unsafe bathroom stalls (people can lift up the door to get inside) and most students are rude. The principal will get mad at everyone instead of just the person who caused the issue.

Im so sick of seeing this school have such good reviews because it is not a good school at all, my niece goes here and she has told me that she has seen so much racism happen among students and she has complained about how the Teachers and administrators sometimes dress code two students wearing the same thing differently based off body type, my niece has also experienced an administrator trying to dress code her for something that wasnt even in the book, this entire district is horrible to be honest, they hate self expression, and they think they know how preteens and teenagers act but they dont! Half the time the things they dress code students about isnt actually distracting to other students, like tank tops, no teenager or preteen is going to be distracted by that, trust me. This school says they care about kids being bullied, but do they actually? No.
