Featured Review: Middle School Student says It is a good school but, there are still problems they need to solve1. They need more people to enforce the rules2. They need more sympathy for the kids that did not do anything wrong3. (This is a good one) They have very good programs for the students and an amazing PTA4. This school definitely exceeded my expectations when i was coming, but they still have things to fix5. If you are thinking of coming here, please consider the amount of kids that go to this school and how physical they are..
