School Reviews
2 11/18/2020
The teachers are overall pretty good, however this school is lacking in many areas. For example, no extracurricular activities besides sports not one club, mathlete team, anything. The students get higher than average test scores, but not by much. The school is lacking funds as well It''s obvious to tell by looking around maybe they would have more if they didn't waste it re doing the parking lot twice in a summer.
