It can be overwhelming.

Literally in a matter of seconds the guidance counselor rambles off to-do items and makes you sign that you are doing them. Big checkmark that another pare...

Not a good school at all. The teachers do not grade things often for months at a time then will suddenly issue grades at the end of the semester. Teachers are mediocre and underpaid there are a few great ones but they are the minority. The administration is not helpful and because they give scholars...
