Open Quote I have great teachers, but I don't feel like the curriculum is advanced enough for me. This is a very easy school (I almost have all 100s on my report card.) So if you're looking for something more challenging, I would suggest you test for Caddo Middle Magnet. Overall it is a good school but there are a lot of cliques. Also I think that the kids here are kind of rude and immature. Another thing I don't like about this school is that in the winter, you are always cold (obviously) but this is an outdoors school so they can't heat the hallways when it gets cold. Also, I feel like I have to wake up too early. My friends and I usually get up at around 5am-6am, which studies have proven is way too early for kids to wake up and properly focus on their school work. So I don't really like this school but it's alright. Close Quote
