“Teachers take all semesterNot so brightDesign Arts - Industrial Design/Graphic Design/etc
Teachers take all semester to grade work, then when a teacher gets sick you are left with 1/4 of the semester with work that you have turned in that wont even be graded because they wont have anyone to help grade the work for the sick teacher. STAY AWAY!

“It's a very small school.Quite BrightBiology
It's a very small school. The people that go here are very clicky. Don't expect yourself to be well liked if you don't wear the "right type" of jeans. People here are really into gossiping and it't almost like a highschool. The school shuts down almost completely on the weekends. There are about ten cars in the parking lot when it is the weekend. If you want to party, expect to only be invited if your considered cool. The faculty is nice but the students here don't seem to care about their education. You see all the athletes sitting on facebook and they wonder why the sports here are horrible! The town has nothing to offer besides a little gas station and a pizza ranch. The school is so bad that they give out so many scholarships just to bring people in.

“This school is absolutely horid, if you areBrightAthletics/Training
This school is absolutely horid, if you are a person that likes to have that college atmosphere, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. The school spirit and college atmosphere here is terrible. The bball games and volleyball games are jokes, the small amount of people who do go are more and likely drunk, and for football, the football players think they run the school yet they are still terrible. The education is good I guess, It has a high graduation rate and I learned alot. But when it comes to social life and the people here, you are going to expect alot of nerdy kids that like to play zombies and humans on campus. Overall this a school for nerds who dont care for college spirit or sports, if you want stuff to do outside of school... good luck there aint nothing to do.. only positives are the Cross country/track team who actually are normal and have a pretty solid program and the education otherwise no thank you.
