This school is cutting arts programming and spending absurd amounts on athletic facilities/teams; classes for sciences and math are average, and English as a whole is poor. Students are heavily encouraged to go into AP classes, which looks good on rankings, but means those classes are full at 27-30 kids pretty much all the time and some students shouldn't be in there to start with. Because it is a small school, the staff generally knows the kids, which is nice. Close Quote
