The school had a new science department building which was state of the art, and the science teachers stepped up their teaching up but the rest of the school was left behind and still remains that way, I hope to see change all throughout the school, not just the science wing.

I want to see a more involved and friendly administration and I want to feel comfortable and safer in my school environment. I feel a disconnect between students and administration (and some teachers). There are also consulars that are continously lacking and unhelpful - and often create added stress - to students when it comes to their courses and future when planning.

There have been a few safety issues but the administration dealt with it pretty well. My biology teacher is leaving because of the administration because they wouldn't do something unless it was affecting everyone. The administration could have been better definitely and they could probably do some things to ensure safety. I got trampled from some kids in the hall way that were running, I sprained my wrist. The school is okay.

This school has been amazing for my son. As an advanced student, he’s had access to great classes that have challenged him while still allowing him to perform well. The school added a science and technology wing in 2022 to reduce overcrowding. The Engineering wing is amazing with lots of great techn...
