yall might think this is a bad school but it isnt. the teachers only want to help students that care. they try to reach out to others and must of the "bad" students get help. these teachers are the realest teachers ever. you can trust them no matter what. i was a bad student and my health teacher pulled me aside and we talked for hours. he helped me out a whole lot. i could of been on the streets doing who know's what. but he helped me out and now im at augusta state university, taking pschology.
so no matter what you think this is a GREAT school. Close Quote
