I have went to this school for six years, but it was horrible, i moved because of this school. It was disgusting and didn't have many opportunities in success. Its majority is the Hispanic population so there is a lot of spanish talking and not english. this school always had it out for me, even when i didn't do anything wrong they would right me up, i was very upset at the lack of intelligence there was, i would always know everything they were talking about because it was very easy subjects. I would give this school a 0.4 out of ten! I suggest you look at other schools.
