I was a part of the graduating class of 2017, and the only reason I am giving three stars is…read morebecause of the staff. The school itself could do with some repairs and remodeling, but I'm sure that isn't a priority with the supplies the teachers are forced to resort to. The principal was amazing when I started my first day of freshman year, but we had a change about half way through my junior year and she was absolutely horrible compared to the first. She lacked respect for many of the students and simply didn't care to get to know any of us, unless we were the suck ups who stroked her ego. The content of the core classes and some of the electives didn't prepare me for college at all. The teachers however are absolutely amazing. My math teacher, Mr. Dial, was a strict but understanding teacher. He knew how to keep rowdy students in line while not being out of line, and when I asked for help he stayed with me until he found a way that helped me learn. His dedication to individual students is the reason I know math so well. My Science teachers well all really cool people who found cool ways to teach students that helped he lesson stick. My Health Science teacher was my favorite however. Ms. Thomas is the most kind and outgoing person I knew all throughout my high school years, and even when she caught students cheating, she was polite and reasonable. I was one of those cheaters on a test that I'd forgotten to study for. She was so polite when she confronted me that I didn't want to disappoint her by cheating again. Now there was the occasional teacher that I just didn't like. One of which was an English teacher with a temper. At one point they had gotten upset at something a student had said and actually flipped a table and told them to get out. That kind of behavior shouldn't be acceptable in a school. Over all it's not the worst school around, it's also not the best.
