This is the second year for my son, he doesn't like it.
I told him they care and he needs to do better. They demand from the students and want them to do well.

They teach the same academics EVERY YEAR.
There are lack of sports teams, and barley any fun extracurricular activities.
Jones tends to lose on a academic and athletic involvements, because the training is not there.
FAcilites ARE ABSOLUTLEY HORRIBLE. the bathrooms doors are pulled of and stink and faucets are broken along with the toliets. the parents do not involve themselves with school activities because there are really none and the parents dont like Jones. THE FOOD IS THE WORST PART OF THE SCHOOL.
