What people are saying

by a student
Wednesday, December 6, 2017

Students, teachers, administration, and lunches are absolute garbage. Students don't know how to respect each other properly unless you're in a specific clique, teachers and administrators are usually biased against a person being accused of being something they didn't do wrong and lunches, don't get me started. If you have to choose a high school, please do not pick this high school unless you want your children to lose their souls Close Quote
