"Ok im a student here and i LOVE it. The teachers arnt strict at all unless you REALLY want to make them mad. It isnt too strict so i have no idea about what others are saying... I am currently in Honors band and the teachers are really great. So overall the teachers are great, they are just doing there job, we dont do belts anymore (As far as i know) and you dont get a detention the FIRST time a teacher see you untuck your shirt (Guys). Many kids get by most of the time. And for the parent that said that the honors program is ridicules.... seriously honors english and regular english is a big step and regular vs honors... sure you get more work and yes they teach you almost the exact thing but in a week or two ADVANCE and so your going a lot faster pace and getting a lot more practice (Like practicing for band.) or else your going to fail. They do give you different stuff than regular but its not gonna be a jump to another grade if you know what i mean. So hope this helps i would totally recommend this school and for the fact that you dont have to wear stupid uniforms and yet people are still complaining about that there kids get detention from untucking there shirts.... ugh"

"Thi is a terrible school! Do not send your child here! I have had two attened this school so far and am trying to transfer the second. Unless your child is in the band they dont really care about them. The sports program is a joke!!! They do not care about sports at all. Their coaches do not have a clue. The honors program is rediculous. All they do is teach the exact same curriculum as the regular classes and give lots more homework! Silly If you happen to be in the Cirle of friends your slild will reep the benefits(Teachers friends)"
