The competition is great, the student body is diverse, the teachers are excellent, the academic performance is outstanding, and there are a lot of sports and extracurriculars to choose from.

I love how there aren't typical cliques at this school - the student body is diverse and people of different races get together. The upperclassmen aren't as scary as they portray in movies and are usually friendly, or at least don't bother you if you don't bother them. I just wish that the admins are more observant of the few pointless fights happening here and there...

The school is great! i love that as a body of students we all pretty much know everyone. which has its pro's and con's. we have some great teachers on staff and some that need a little more work. athletics is going well its rough not having the experience and the seniors but i think by the time the sophomore class this year are seniors this school will be unbeatable becasue of the hard wrok that this school has had to go aginst trying to make a name for its self. Go Wildcats!

I agree with the first reviewer that the Administration puts a spin on everything, instead of being straightforward about the school's shortcomings. So far, there have been some really great teachers, and some really bad teachers - the same as with all of the schools in the district. The Athletic Director is in way over his head and to the amazement of many, was re-hired for the second year. The benefits of this school are it's small size, many opportunities for extra-curriculur activities, and highly academic environment (if your child responds well to academic competition).
