My daughter hates it. Hard to make friends and fit in. Block scheduling does not work for her. Will transfer her to a more diverse school like FHS.

OUTSTANDING school academically and athletic wise. There are just few bad apples but for the most part the teachers here are GREAT!
The bad thing is the students. This school is just not a diverse school and that is our downfall.
