This school is not like any other. They try so hard to be the best school in the building (We are 1 out of 4 schools) and we are third best. If you want that high school experience, QPA isn't the place to go. There is so much headache and confusion that happens in this school and nobody is on the same page. I'm so glad that this is my last year. I probably wont return.
