Parents & Students Reviews:

– Overcrowded
– Horrible guidance counselors
– The placement criteria make no sense(level 2 –> Eng-Honors 4 is possible with an A, but Accelerated to Eng-H 2 is not possible with an A-; you can’t accelerate your math level, if you get one B- or maybe even a B, you might never see math honors; To move up in History or Science, you need a certain math/english requirement)
– Hypocritical as hell(Stay hydrated! –> No water bottles allowed(All the fountains don’t even work))
– Retarded rules(no large bags in the hallway because you could have a bomb and blow yourself up)
– This might be controversial, but it has a hardcore liberal bias in the sense that conservative = wrong(I’m not even conservative, I’m apolitical, but demonizing acceptable ideas shouldn’t be a thing in school)
– Scumbag supervisors for some subjects(some of them, like the history dude are(is) cool, but others are not worthy of being mentioned except in the lesser key of Solomon)
– Horrible people exist in this school(Class of 2018, arguably the class of 2021)
– We burn in the summer
– We need to sign out AND get a pass to use the bathroom during lunch, when I was in Woodrow, I could just sign my name and leave. Keep in mind, each lunch period has around 600 kids.
– The floor is weird sometimes(built on a swamp)
– A fake positive attitude is heard every morning in the speakers, but really there isn’t anything there
– There is NO SCHOOL SPIRIT FROM THE TEACHERS, STUDENTS, OR ADMINISTRATORS
– Speaking of admins, some of them are just plain bad
– There isn’t enough space for a lot of classes
– You need an A to move up to Honors from level 1, an A, not an A-
– You need a bunch of requirements to go from level 1 to Honors
– You need a bunch of requirements to go from level 2 to 1
– You have rigged elections(no I am not a Trump supporter, but this is what happened)
– Even with SOOOO many donations and SUPERTAXES, we still don’t have an AC
– ETC.(AND I MEAN ETC.)
Pros:
– It’s just 4 years, then you never have to come back to this literal swamp
– Mr. Smith
Plus, they haven’t fixed the bathrooms in like eight millenia. That’s a downer.
Pros:
– great supportive teachers that even add a touch of humour
– academically competetive
– macbooks!
– wide range of extra-curricular activities (i really love the club)
– water fountains located all over the school
Cons:
– no Air Conditioning
– some teachers can be a little too strict
– not all guidance counselors are supportive
– needs more work on the level system
