If you want your kid to go to a school and struggle mentally and physically then i guess this is the place. Id stay away from this school, this town, all of it.

I would describe this school as tightly-knit in terms of community, but very poor in terms of actual learning. This school has many culture issues, ranging from the bullying to discrimination. There is a severe lack of resources and motivation to learn, and many graduates end up falling short of what should be occurring. There are no opportunities at this school whatsoever. I love my people, but this school is absolutely miserable in nearly every way.

I've been going to this school my entire life. I love it, but I just wish we weren't as broke as we are. The school is a Title 1 school, which basically means a school living in poverty. I'm a middle class gal myself, but because our county is so small, there isn't enough tax revenue coming in to provide for the school. I also wish there were more accepting and diverse students. Otherwise, I'm getting a great education! :)
