The teachers are enthusiastic and caring and provide not just training but life experiences. The curriculum encourages hands on experience as well as real life training, and provides a multitude of ways for the teens to excel. We had the honor of presenting to the teens both in the morning and afternoon session, and were impressed with their interaction as well as knowledge. The students have also participated in service projects which are a regular part of the schedule. Great space and exciting to see how well the teens are doing in this environment where they feel supported and encouraged.

We were there for a soccer event and got to experience some of the parents engaging with students which was helpful. It was a well run event with great concessions and lots of seating for those attending. I'd go back for future events and would love to find out more about their academic record.

This is sadly, a real review. Don't be deceived by their sports... the principal and dean do not…read moretreat students respectfully. A lot of teachers discriminate based on how popular or rich you are, and again, the principal and dean are the same. The athletic director stole 40k for sports betting, the previous superintendent was fired and replaced with... the dean!? And a long year after, with no attempts at actually finding a man or woman smart enough to hold the position. Do NOT send your kids here, and if you are a decent person please, do not risk working here either. If you aren't rich, you aren't popular here. There is no true authority here. many male teachers get too comfortable with the female students and to stupid with the boys. Almost all the decent people have left. I've heard that the principal doesn't show up half of the time... especially when she's needed during lunch detentions. The Bible teachers here are not good, minus one. One thinks he is "cool" but treats people very poorly simply because he does not like them. The other has a loud mouth, a short step, and is stuck up as he often tries to make himself look good around the students. Don't risk even driving onto the school property unless you're there to save the three or four honest and respectful teachers. Does this sound like a God-fearing, faith based safe space for your children?? Do Christian's go around flaunting their bodies, objectifying their girlfriends, or bullying others to the extreme? I am extremely disappointed and my heart has a heavy burden for those who have and are being negatively affected by this school. I highly do not recommend ever going here, ever.

How will I break this to Xyre, though? He's so obsessed with LeBron... What if he doesn't want to raise the child with me? What if he hates me? He wouldn't hate me... right? We jerked off to LeBron together, I don't see why he'd hate me! Whatever... I need to get to school before I'm late... lowkey at school I enter the school, very nervous. What will he say when he finds out about the successful pregnancy? It doesn't matter currently.. I need to get to first period. I enter first period, being one of the first in class, as the alpha sigma male I am. I just get to work on the first work, not even going to talk with my very insufferable friends. I get first period over with, second period... second block has Xyre... I'm totally fucked.... I enter second period, Xyre immediately waves me over, obviously wanting to talk to me. Great. Just great. I walk over to him and sit down next to him. This is about to be a long period.... Xyre: "Hey dude! How you doing?" Tripp: "Well, I could be doing better.. Listen, I have something to tell you." Xyre: "Oh? If you're about to say that the jerking off we did to LeBron was amazing, I know it was!" Tripp: "That was amazing, but, that's not what I'm trying to tell you.." Tripp observed the look on Xyre's face. His face looked confused. Like he was thinking that I was crazy. Xyre: "Then what is it?" Tripp: "I'm... I'm pregnant.." Xyre had a looked more confused than before. This isn't going to end well... Xyre: "That... That child wouldn't be mine... right?' Tripp: "It.. It is... So, will... will you help me raise this child?" Xyre: "Hell no, dude! No homo! LeBron looks better anyways!" (Tripp lowkey looks like that one Markiplier drawing) I could feel tears forming in my alpha eyes... no! This can't be happening! Xyre has to help me raise this child.. I run out of class before tears start pouring out my eyes. This couldn't be happening! I sprint off to the nearby clinic to get an abortion and become a blue haired they/them that'll like women for the rest of my life. end of highkey peak story

When i got the fries they were already calling tables to clean up. im very mad about this and it needs to be dealed with by the principal.

They told my child to not share what occurred at their school. This school and principal is also doing illegal things, such as not providing children with the supports needed in their IEP.

Awful experience...as a parent they will make you feel like trash for getting your child the help they need. Meetings just to save face. It's sad and higher ups need to investigate.

We were the visiting team, and parking was extremely tight. The athletic entrance was door 7, they have a small parking lot in front of that door but then a lot of cars were just parked along the side, and there was a parking lot across the street that was also full. We didn't find a traditional spot, but we parked along the side with other cars hoping our car was safe. Thankfully, it was. Cash and card is accepted for admission. Cost was $7 or a little more for card. Concessions were available, and I noticed they sold snow cones with an option from 6 flavors. My husband purchased a beef hotdog, popcorn, and a drink and he said the pricing was comparable to other schools. The senior night display was right in front of the gym entrance, and it was pretty tight and crowded. The gym is large in size with plenty of seating for spectators. The band was playing, and it was loud inside the gym. Score boards were visible on each side. Unfortunately, my son's team didn't do well at this game and it was a blow out.
