The school has great programs and some of the teachers really do care. But for the most part, the staff, even the secretaries, do prefer students and parents from rich families. If you aren't rich or white, you won't get much attention. My sister's experience there was more devastating as she was outcast for being an americanized Hispanic. She didn't fit in with the white kids or the Hispanics. She was left on the fringes without anyone, even staff reaching out to her. Parts of this school are really great though. They do all they can to keep attendance high, homework turned in and a clean, crisp appearance.

Very good school, although there is some preference to student's from certain families or who are 'jocks'.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the End-of-Course (EOC) Assessments to test high school students in Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, English I, English II, American History, Government, and Biology. The EOC Assessments are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Missouri for each subject. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
