    The teachers are amazing and take time to help when needed. They create a healthy and safe environment for students to thrive in. I believe that the administration could do a better job at getting juniors and seniors thinking about college and how to be prepared for the huge decisions coming their way. Another improvement is sports; I believe the district could be better at getting kids started young and encouraging them to be more involved. The school spirit is amazing no matter the scores of any of the games. Homecoming week, prom, and all the extracurricular activities were my favorite part of student involvement.
    I graduated from there, so I have the first-hand experience. I would of rather have gone to a Christian school. They don't push students academically, yet the teachers are very smart! There's a variety of clubs yet diversity is small. There were many fights, so I struggled feeling safe. The food has gotten better through the years.
