Very good school academically. Small, cleam school. Good weight room and computer room. Would recommend.

While giving students freedom to work at their own speed, lack of attention and frankly rude behavior from teachers makes this school difficult to enjoy. One doesn’t feel comfortable speaking to their teachers about issues they are having with their academics, as they know from personal experience that they will be shut down or ridiculed.
