"I agree with the most recent comments. Dress code is pretty ridicules and inconsistent. as are most rules in this school. I don't see that it is too much homework but more that there is no accountability for HW and the teachers really don't seem to care at all about each student. It is overcrowded as well. I have an 8th grader and a 9th grader who both spent three years here. They did not have any issues socially but I do know that other kids have. The office staff often seem to be under a great deal of stress so I think that is where the rudeness comes from. Overall I am sorry I choose this school and hope my kids will do better in another school district for their high school education."

"Way to much homework!!! Most teachers don't care about the kids learning!Too much bullying that goes on and nothing is done about it! The teachers cram way to much homework in at the last minute and have lots of hard tests! Dress Code has been a major issue and nothing has been done about it!!! Now with two weeks remaining in the school year they decide to hand out punishment for Dress Code. The front office is very mean and rude to children and parents!This has not been a good experience!!!!"

"My daughter is going into 8th grade on September 8, 2009 and she loves the school. The teachers are nice and she has been getting wonderful grades since she has been going there."

"I have learned an amazing deal from school. The academics are so well-developed and I just feel, for the lack of a better term, better than those who go to other schools. Sure, my work load is high, maybe a little too high, but I get it done and it's good for me in the long run. The Gifted and Talented Edu. program I'm in couldn't be better. When things get out of hand, there's a good deal of punishment. We have lots of extracurricular activities and special elective groups like Associated Student Body, Peer Assistance Leadership, and AVID. The faculty couldn't be any nicer. I only have 50 more days left here and I'm going to miss it !"

"The homework is a little too excessive, and some teachers just don't seem to care about the students' learning quality. Overall, however, the GATE program is good and we students seem to succeed on tests despite the careless teachers."
