Wow, you parents really need to get the ball rolling. The only review here is from a STUDENT? All right, well here's the down low. This school, is no better than any other school. Geometry and Physics don't have the best teacher, he's a great guy but he makes everything difficult to understand for the students. The other classes are mediocre, at best. They're not very good at controlling their kids, and they are an unruly bunch at that. It is LOUD. But, if you want a title, sure, go ahead and send your kid here. He won't know much more than a normal student, but at least he'll have a meaningless title. COLLEGE GRAD.

We are a collegiate high school, every student gets a laptop, every student is involved in AVID. 'Cooperative learning' is highly encouraged by all the teachers... and Mr. Alexander(:
