What people are saying

by a student
Monday, June 4, 2018

Attended all 4yrs myself as well as my siblings. Have seen quite the decline from what didn't really start very high to begin with in environment. Due to violence and apparent drug related reasons freedom has steadily declined, which made violence worse the first couple of years of my younger siblings' attendance. The student-teacher respect is non-existent and both sides are to blame for that. Bullying is ignored, Christianity is a little too present at times (we are the bible belt), there's little to no diversity, artistic talents aren't nourished and there only exist a few good influences.
