  • Rating: 5 (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • This is a great school, the staff is friendly and the honors/AP programs put students in a terrific position to get accepted into colleges. The students get along well generally and the large student body allows for plenty of mingling between the grades and genders etc.
