Horrible...Just horrible, About 70% of the water fountains in the school doesn't work. So many disrespectful students. There tons of horrible teachers working there. It's pretty dirty there. There is gum EVERYWHERE. They are always talking about "keeping the earth clean" but it is not clean at the school.I highly recommend not to go to this school. In gym, It's so boring the only thing I liked was Student choice and Pacer and that's it The reason why I gave this a 2 instead of a 1 is because of the clubs. There is a lot of clubs.
