School Reviews
5 7/5/2022
I went to this school almost 20 years ago. It was a wonderful experience. The teachers that were there, cared about the students. Everyone knew everyone, and if someone needed help someone was always there. Yes, there are cliques, yes there were teachers that we burnt out and wanted to give up and not care. but I assure you, this school is way better than the IPS school system.

Good kids with good parenting have great opportunities here.

They pull kids out of high school randomly and have K-9 units search people's car. We're in the process of working on a class action lawsuit. I advise if you have respect for the constitution and want your kids to grow up and learn there rights. This is not the school for your kids.
