(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school is very amazing. I'm going to miss it a lot. The teachers here are awsome and do their best to teach us with what we have. I think all of our programs are very strong. Principal is very nice. Vice principal needs to lighten up a little. Homework is not a problem. People say teachers give too much but they don't...some students do not use their time wisley in class. If anything some teachers could be more strict. There is a group of students in 8th grade who need to be told that they need to treat people better. Our sports teams are very good..at least most of them. Track, Cross Country, and Volleyball are all very good. 7th grade basketball is pretty good. 8th grade boys basketball are horrible! They haven't won a single game in their middle school careers! Football is ok. We usually go around 2-3 or 3-2 each year.
