Churchland High School
this school is great because they offer a variety of programs aimed for the success of their students and making sure they graduate on time or even early. Students in this school are lacking discipline but that doesnt mean they all are. If you're looking for a school with SOME good teachers, a good chance at learning, and better grades, this is the school for you!
