(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am recently new to the Home of the Trojans and I learn new things about the school daily. Teachers work really hard, with the students, to help them succeed. The campus is large and well kept overall. there are computers available to students and there is even free tutoring after school. The staff is authoritative but not intimidating. There are many choice programs like ROTC and Medical available. I am currently taking a culinary course myself. The school deserves more credit than it recieves on a daily basis.
