I Dislike this school very much.
I HATE the students that attend it, and the teachers aren't that great either.
The Ap's are horrible as well.
I do not recommend anyone to attend this school.
If I had a choice, I would have left the very first day I attended. Close Quote

Despite all the criticism and negatives comments about the school, we DO have positive things. Most people look beyond our achievements and call us ghetto. Unless they actually go there, they can't say any stereotype about the school. We're diverse and people may think we're mostly poor but a lot of students lie on free and reduced lunch forms. We're also ethnically diverse which might be seen as a bad thing to others, but it's the diversity that sets us apart from other schools. We do have smart kids and struggling ones but what school doesn't? We don't deserve this negative rep. Close Quote
