This is a wonderful school! They have everything here! Art, Music, Tech Ed, FACS, and even Computers for the Enchore classes. Everyone at this school has a good attitude and is helpful and are smart. The teachers will help you if you are having trouble and the guidance counselor is very understanding having children of her own the same age! If you are looking for a perfect school, you have come to the right place!
