(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - The Alternative High School is the dumping ground / penalty box for First Flight HS. A failing student or discipline problem of FFHS is immediatley sent here as to avoid negatively affecting FFHS state rankings. It's very sad as these students are sent here to fail. Dare School Board and the FFHS principal should be ashamed of themselves.
