It’s a competitive environment. AP classes are very selective - my son graduated with just 3 AP classes despite of his 91 GPA. Yet, he loves the school due to the many clubs/teams he can join. If he has the same record at another hs, then I don’t think he will receive acceptance letter from NYU, University of Austin, University of Ohio, UCI, Fordam U…A big thank you to Principal Yu for always having the best interest of student well being in his heart (my son rarely hug me, but he hugged Yu at graduation ceremony.)

I believe that the school does not live up to its reputation in any way. The school lacks devoted and capable teachers. Several teachers are known to "make up the class as they go" as several students say. I for one see the school as a normal school that does not deserve its national rank of 31. Close Quote
