What utter trash. The food is horrible and poisonous. The only way to get an A is to be one of the favorites as this school is run on favoritism. Most of the teachers are awful and pick favorites. In addition to this, the security pick favorites as well. They only allow certain people to break rules while some do not follow the rules which is incredibly unfair. The rules make no sense and are ridiculous. People can get detention just because they did not tuck in their shirts. The rules make no sense and are just plain stupid. I tried to transfer last year but they declined my request so i guess i am stuck for two more years. Seriously, this school makes Kelly and Jones look like Yale or Harvard. This school is so bogus and stupid.

To be completely honest, there are some really shady teachers at this place. I have heard multiple stories from others that some of the staff talk badly about students. Not to mention, the favoritism is too obvious and some teachers even break the rules for their favorites. Sometimes, I feel too uncomfortable here. Other than that, there are some really amazing and caring teachers I will remember for the rest of my life.

The school and staff are great. They support the students too reach success. Classes are well tutored (could do some tweaking to some) and informative. The downside on my part is the academic awards. The high school focuses a lot on sports when they call out awards. In fact, the 3rd-quarter awards hosted after-school are about 80% sports. There's like only two awards on academics-- honor roll (from A-J and K-Z[or so]).

This school is shady and awful. The food is expired and the teachers choose favorites. On top of that, half the school is garbage and majority of the staff are so fake. The rules make no sense and the office is pretty much garbage. Basically, almost everything is garbage.
